Don't care for this myself. I think it's a bit too much to be spending on a #4 or 5 safety even. Just hope it doesn't effect the moral of the team when some of the starters see a guy who plays a lot less getting more money.

I do like Richardson I think he's great on special teams and is a nice option to have in the box but I don't think he's good enough in coverage to warrant the price tag.

Heres hoping i'm wrong and another year removed from surgery turns him into a demon on ST and in the Box!

I never had a high opinion of Richardson like some in here seem to have. He is what? 14th or 16th highest paid Packer now? That is not a good thing. He's no better than 4th among Safeties, and his lack of coverage skills make him a risk to even hit the field on defense. They shoulda just let Oakland have him for that kind of money.

Sean Richardson is not worth $2.5 million for a year. I like him a lot in run support and special teams. That said, I doubt he could cover half the TE's in the league for more than two steps. Richardson doesn't deserve being one of the top 25 paid on the roster because he's not a starter.

I can't gripe about the actual contract though because the Packers are being wise in spending money on players they know instead of foolishly spending money on free agents who's own team doesn't want anymore. And the Packers appear to be doing well in the salary cap space department too.


Edit, on a smaller scale, this deal reminds me of Brad Jones contract.

Richardson was thrown into the fire when he was a rookie and performed better than most would have.

Then the injury came the next year and the inevitable setback .

He wad solid last year on special teame, still struggled a bit on defense but flashed at Times.

One year deal, not going to break the bank or effect the future cap.

He probably will replace Bush, although having them both back would definitely help Special Teams.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

I'm pretty sure it's his special teams play. Obviously more than the Packers wanted to pay, or they would have put the $2.35M 2nd round tender on him in the first place.

Maybe Ted Thompson can still trade him to the Raiders for a mid-round draft pick! That would be hilarious.

Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : They're fun to do once in awhile. It's people who think they are "content" that annoy me.

Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Fining them is the goal, per the people who made the rule anyway.
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
