Packer Free Agents & Salaries

Now, let's divide the list into pay and not pay.  Pay would be they get a nice raise & not pay, they would get a minimum raise.  Here we go……

Pay - (give a nice raise)

James Starks - stayed healthy this year & is a great complement to Lacy!  He style of running is NFL tough, and provides a spark when he comes into the game!

John Kuhn - what can you say about John Kuhn?  The fans say it best, Kuuuuuuuhn!   He is a leader, protects Rogers in the pocket, provides special teams help, and is a coach on the field!  )Plus, his wife is awesome! - That is a Packer Buddies group opinion!) Another "community guy!"

James Jones - another leader.  He is the Packer "tough" receiver!  Every team needs one!  Big & strong, makes the difficult catches!  He is also a great leader & community guy!

Sam Shields - our "cover" corner!  This is the one guy I think we MUST keep!

Not Pay - (give a minimal raise)

Matt Flynn - many teams passed on him.  Should sign at a good price!

Jermichael Finley (one year only)  - we can only trust one year!  His injury was to scary to trust to a long contract!

Andrew Quarless - I think filled in well when Finley went down!  Can block & catch!  But, he is not a game changing tight end.  But he is the best we have on the roster.  Many throw in a little more $$$

Evan Dietrich-Smith - Was very steady and had a good season!  BUT, again this is a money thing.  And we are beginning to develop some depth in the offensive line!  It all comes down to $$$$

Johnny Jolly - another injury thing (neck!)  I loved the passion & leadership!  And I think helped as a run stopper!!  Would not go crazy, but would like to have him back in 2014!

Mike Neal - injuries scare me!  Was fairly healthy this year & tried his best at the OLB & DE mix.  Not a game changer & I think he is a better DE.

Robert Francois - injured most of the season, but I think one of our better back-up linebackers!  Can not spend a lot on him!

Of course, while I'm signing free agents, I would look at the present contracts and see who would re-negotiate.  My speech would start by saying, "We are trying to win a Super Bowl here in Green Bay, BUT, we have a CAP LIMIT!
