Good move, but not enough.

 

[thisisnate]

very happy to see this move has been finalized

Peeps can say what they want. 'Till now, I do like what the Pack is doing this Offseason. Good signing. If we take a pass rusher round 1 and another CB round 2 of the draft, I won't be able to say anything negative about the FO.

Good depth move, hopefully more still in store at CB.

House signed a one year deal for approximately $3.5 million. Obviously not the cornerback I wanted the Packers to sign.

He's not Richard Sherman, but he's a veteran who played well in his first stint with the Pack, and will add some much-needed depth at the position.

It's a reasonable price for a guy who fits our defense and has had mild success here. At the very least you need guys like House to keep guys like Gunter off the field as much as possible when you have injuries.

I have no issue with this. Not a #1 but certainly better than nothing but rookies which is what I half expected up until now.

Still 22M under the cap, so we'll see what else happens.

Fixed

Mine deleted, then.

A Million more than I thought he'd sign for but it's much needed depth if someone goes down.

House is underrated. His first year in Jacksonville he started all year, had 4 picks and allowed less than an 80 QB rating on balls thrown his way.

Given his familiarity and still relatively young age it's not at all a stretch to think he could be a serviceable starter for us this year if need be. It's even less of a stretch to assume he'll be better than what we had last season, performance wise.

with the loss of Hyde.... I'd say it is more of a push.

Totally different types of corners though, so it's kind of apples and oranges.

I don't know if House is as versatile as Hyde was but it seems to me to be a simple replacement signing. I don't think House is a return man but that's a secondary concern. Secondary as in not primary not as in defensive backfield. We got House cheaper than it would have taken to keep Hyde. I would have liked to have kept Hyde but with this move his loss is not so hard for me to take.

He will be decent depth as our 4th cb behind Randall, Rollins, and Gunter. But I feel like we could've found a player with similar production but higher upside in the draft. At least he's a vet though. This singing does nothing for me as far as moving the needle in one direction or another.

 

[armand34]

I think he's a better Athlete than Hyde was, one more corner we didn't have before!

Lol if he is not a starter it was the worst signing in history since we have some of the worst cornerbacks in the history of the NFL

 

[C-Lee]

Honestly, where did all of these Hyde lovers come from? He played really well down the stretch last season and he was a solid punt returner, but he really wasn't that good.....

I will be absolutely shocked if he ends up behind Gunter on the depth chart, and somewhat surprised if Rollins beats him out.

I wouldn't be surprised

At least we are finally filling some holes in Free Agency, instead of just gutting the team and suiting up practice squad guys.

 

[Firethorn1001]

the worst signing in history

Somewhere Brock Osweiler just asked someone to hold his beer.

Probably not even the worst signing in the last 4 hours let alone history...

 

[Pokerbrat2000]

Another "freebie" non-compensatory affecting signing for TT. I know some are going to shoot back to stop bringing that up and it has nothing to do with anything, but IMO its TT's MO....he values draft picks. Right now he has built up the max of 4 comp. picks for 2018, so TT has to be smiling like a cheshire cat.
