From Lambeau to Lombardi, Holmgren, McCarthy and LaFleur and from Starr to Favre, Rodgers and now Jordan Love we’re talking Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers football. This Packers Forum is the place to talk NFL football and everything Packers. So, pull up a keyboard, make yourself at home and let’s talk some Packers football.
Guess that is probably a downgrade for Gronk, just a TE1 to a WR3, but still.
This is, like, 1 of 3 teams that could have most led to our fan base exploding, haha.
oh great. cue the "we aren't going all in" posts.
Cue the “Brady takes less money so he can stack his roster while Rodgers sucks the most cap space that he can and loses a a billy turner and any shot to beef up the WR corps...”

Wait
They could have gotten Turner back. He only got a 1 year deal for 2.5M. I mean I’ve been saying he’s bad and massively overpaid for years while this forum told me he was a bargain for 7M and outplaying his deal but I won’t rub it in that I was right again… or will I?

What makes you right? That the team must have thought he sucked too and that’s why they cut him??
I still think the team was wrong and with no Bahk and Jenkins, no matter how “not great” Turner was...you still keep around at that price point just for depth. He’s far better than the depth we will have to trot out there now!

there are teams that think having 4 legit WR's is wise.
and there are teams that quibble and decide going into the season with there two best tackles on the pup is a risk there willing to take, Turner signed for chump change, not a wise decision to let him go.

Still think there is a good possibility this happens for the Packers.
Perhaps, if on the very cheap. Could use a speed rusher as a change-of-pace and to exploit certain matchups.
But I didn't realize Ford had started only 41 games in his 8-year career.
There's double risk: Injury history is loooong, and age can take away the speed from his speed rush. Kinda like with Clay Matthews, once that speed goes, you can be somewhat productive with good technique, but if you don't win around the edge, it's easy for OL to push you past the QB, and that leaves open huge scramble lanes. The power rusher likes of Gary and Preston at least usually can keep the QB in the pocket even if they don't win on a rep.
