Straight up for A Rob! Get it done Pace.

(Obviously, it's almost impossible to trade within the division, among other issues)

"Green Bay’s classic structure"

LOL, is this a meme? What structure? Be full Special person in contract negotiations and completely ignore drafting offense for the better part of a decade?

It’s nice to finally see what happens when players doesn’t take that early hometown contract discount in GB.

For years, GB has been prospering on getting cheaper contracts by extending their players much earlier than the end of their current deals, which usually led them to being underpaid in short order.

Adams wants somewhere around the Hopkins extension. Close to 30m a year

They will let him walk
True, but he's still one of the top 3 or 4 receivers in the league. Heck if I were an owner, I'd be trying to sell too.

As Bears fans: Do you go all in on a receiver like Adams if he hits the market? Speed, great router runner, yac.. all things Nagy wants. Him and Mooney could quickly become a pair of WR to contend with.

Florio was on Bernstein and Rahimi when that tweet came across. Florio basically said that WRs are becoming the new RBs, in that with how many WRs are coming through the draft that it's easier to just draft one than pay them big.
I can see that. The amount of good WR's is tremendous.

Saints gave MT the huge contract and now he cant stay healthy

Not for close to 30m a year. He would be more expensive than Mack

Mercy. You may have generational wealth ambitions but your football IQ is lacking.

Packers literally have such good drafts, they generally win the north most years.

Davante Adams
Jordy Nelson
Bryan Bulaga
Jermichael Finley
Randall Cobb
Eddie Lacy
David Bakhtiari
Jamal Williams
Aaron Jones
John Runyan
Jordan Love

Packers draft offense every year for last decade. Get a clue bub.

As much as I would want to, I wouldn’t because of the price. You can use that money to find another solid wr to go with Mooney plus other needs

There's even more than that. Those ******* find WR every year that come out of nowhere.

yeah for real, just getting pulse. He's definitely top 3 in the league. I am not sure I pay that much, but sure would be fun to have explosive plays as bears fan.
Let’s be real though, if he joined the Bears he would never be the same player. Somehow, he would regress to the level of Sam Hurd.
