Got anything left in the tank for the Packers? He'll be 30 years old in November and I read a report that cutting him saved $10.57 million in cap space.

I'd work him out.

At age 30, he certainly should have something in the tank, and he is a pure 3-4 OLB. The thing is, he probably will be pretty expensive. More like he's gonna work us out instead of us working him out.

He shouldn't be very expensive to where he'd break the Packers bank. He's turning 30 and hasn't had a full season for the past three years. Some of that has to count against him in earning a new contract. I think he'd benefit the Packers defense as he is a good player and he also has a mean streak in him.

Maybe he slips past day one of free agency and the Packers are able to pull together an offer.

Additional, I think Mike Neal is a goner so this move would be even more beneficial.

Either one is an injury waiting to happen, but Woodley's actually shown he can play the position.

I love to see Woodley sign with the Packers. I have always referenced Nick Perry as a "poor man's LaMarr Woodley." I think he's what the Packers were hoping Woodley would be, except Perry is probably even a little more athletic. Either way, I'm a big fan of the guy. I don't expect it to happen, but a combination of Mathews, Woodley, Perry, and others would be a good start to improving the defense.

By all means. Let's sign someone 4 years older than Neal, just as injury prone and twice as expensive!

Think of these 2 free agents like potential spouses. Both have physical issues. 1 is older and has much more expensive tastes. That same one was 'hotter' when he/she was younger, but has some major miles on that body now.

Which one you picking? If either?

BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

TheKanataThrilla (15h) : NFL Network is broadcasting the game tonight, but not in Canada. Not sure why as no local television is showing the game.

beast (8-Aug) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

beast (8-Aug) : It's a new rule, so it's not clear, but my understanding was that they could be IR'd at any time

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (8-Aug) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (8-Aug) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress

dfosterf (7-Aug) : to herd cats or goldfish without a bowl. They reminded me of the annual assembly of our fantasy league

dfosterf (7-Aug) : out on a field trip, outfitting them with little yellow smocks. Most of the little folk were well behaved, but several were like trying

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : found bad sql in database, maybe site faster now?

dfosterf (5-Aug) : I'm going to call that a good move.

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : You can have my 12th Rd for your 2nd round
