Packers Huddle

Makes me wonder what the numbers are but I love this signing. This offense is gonna eat.

Ugh. Don't like this.

Awesome! One of the best backs in the league.

Maybe not quite the burst that Jones has but I believe his top end speed might be a little faster. He has a lot of moves plus he’s hard to bring down. Great addition for red zone too.

Lupe gunna hate it, but I wanted this.

We were just such a different, worse offense, when Jones was out and Dillon in, and then even significantly worse with Wilson or Taylor.

Longer we go without seeing numbers the better.

Why did he suck so much last year?

Also this signing effectly ends any comp pick thoughts about FA this year.

This would cancel out anything JRJ might have gotten, otherwise we'd just be looking at like 6th or 7th for Savage or Nixon.

Have a feeling we aren't done yet.

Kinda like this. Similar to Jones but bigger. Interesting to see if GB can take advantage of his receiving skills, which the Raiders never did.

Amazing for Josh Jacobs to get to go from HOF QB to HOF QB.

He is still 26 so he should still have a few good years left in the tank, and RBs do not go for crazy money so hopefully our contract reflects that.

It scares me a little bit because he has been pretty heavily used lately and was ineffective last year, but the Raiders OL blows chunks, and the team more broadly was a McDaniels &%$@ show. I am inclined to think he is still good and was in a bad situation, but I would have been shy about putting money on it, even if we got him on a reasonable deal.

In any case, I am cautiously optimistic. Bring on some Safety signings!

Raiders. Team was a mess all year. Him in a dual role with Jones is the best thing for him. Well, for us anyway.

What an awful decision.

Not to get lost in this, but best of luck to AJ Dillon. Didn't ever 100% come together like people hoped. But he was an easy guy to like. Hope Door County doesn't take his key away.

I am leaning in this camp as well. Will wait to see the contract.

My hope is his crappy 2023 season will lower the price. But my suspision of being a day 1 signing means he will be expensive. I would have rather rolled the dice on a draft pick.

seems like the same style of RB as Jones, so he's less of a tell then Dillon is, this makes our offense more versatile

Hyped!

Love this so much. The Packers have determined that the championship window is open wide and they're all gas no brakes.

we may do that as well, Jones isn't getting any younger
