LyndonvilleBill Posted February 28, 2021 Posted February 28, 2021 I keep going back and forth. My fan brain says go for it and sign him, but my normal brain says don't. My common sense says they will keep what they have (Addison, AJ, Hughes, Love, Cox, Johnson),draft one early and use the savings to sign our own. I am so confused. Might have to schedule a DR. For this one... Thank Goodness I have all of you...😱 1 1

No way JJ takes the vet min, yeah he wants to win but he also wants some money as well. Plus there’s too many egos in Green Bay starting with the HC butting heads with Rodgers etc
BuffaloRebound Posted March 1, 2021 Posted March 1, 2021 If Watt doesn’t pick Green Bay, it won’t have anything to do with the salary cap. They could easily make it work if they want it to.

Expand sure there is. Give Watt a 3 year deal, small base salary. Upfront signing bonus in year 1 . Bam low salary cap number , big signing bonus, easily cuttable year 2 and 3. Minimal impact on this years salary cap

Expand $8m over the cap isn’t much. Could easily convert Rodgers salary and roster bonus to a signing bonus. He’s probably due a new contract coming off an MVP year anyway. Maybe that’s what Watt’s waiting on. Can’t see Watt going to Green Bay unless Rodgers is a happy camper.
