Player talk...
Wells: Seems he wants more money than I think we ought to give him. I obviously really want him to stay, but not for top5 money even if he is that good.
Finley: Would like to keep him. Do we have the flexibility to offer him a long-term deal? I'm not sure. He also seems like the kind of guy that might ask for more money than I think we ought to pay him. If he goes FA, does he demand WR dollars?
Driver: I love him. Wanted him to retire. I think he needs to be cut though.
Clifton: Same deal. Not worth the 5 or 6 games a year you can count on him to participate in. Not even close.
Flynn: So hard not to advocate a franchise move with the shortage of quarterbacks available and the potential market for him. Especially with Miami being one of those market teams and their new HC being GB's old OC, who knows Flynn better than anyone. But probably a pipe dream. Have fun in free agency.
Free agents: Tyvon Branch, Manny Lawson, Jerry Hughes... all guys I would like looked at, but Ted is allergic to free agents, so we'll see if he does anything at all. Unlikely.
Draft: Potentially another BPA year. Probably Perry or Brockers if he's there... plz sum Upshaw
Bring Wells and Finley back on good contracts.
Driver should retire, but may land with another team.
Clifton retire
Flynn FA gonzo
Who was the last notable FA the Pack went out and got? Woodson right? Before that Why does Andre Rison come to mind...or was that a trade?
Draft Defensive pass rush help 1st, BPA after that.
