The NFL is in a strange place. Let's face it, the country is in a strange place! The Cap Space, is forcing all teams to make difficult decisions. just like American families are making decisions! Many fans, like my Packer Buddies were not able to attend Packer Games! Sometimes we forget, how many GREAT opportunities we have in this country & focus on the NEGATIVE! And, the NFL football players are part of the fabric of this country! So, who will NOT be a Packer next year???
Christian Kirksey, inside linebacker & Rick Wagner, offensive tackle tackle were let go. Remember, Kirksey was brought in to replace Blake Martinez & Wagner was brought in to replace Brian Bulaga. Good news, our young inside linebackers Martin & Barnes, had good seasons. And, the versatility of our offensive line was on display all season. So, the loss of Kirksey & Wagner is not devastating!
Cap Space? Remember, on of my favorite websites: Spotrac
According to this website we still need to cut players, the latest numbers:
Top 51 players - $5,250,000 & All players $11,000,000. The Packers are now 24th as far as Cap Space. There are still 11 teams in a NEGATIVE cap space situation. There will be a lot of player movement this year and the Packers are not finished! Look for more players to be released. Some will come later because of contract situations. But, one this for sure, more cuts on the way!!!
The current Packer roster has 85 players on it.
So, stay tuned....................
