[QUOTE="Deleted member 6794, post: 542951"] Some things about your suggestions. I would be all for signing Shields to a 6-year contract averaging a bit more than $8 million a year, don't think though $10 million guaranteed will be close to what he'll ask for. In addition the contract's structure should be way different than what the Ravens gave Webb as his cap number skyrockets in year 3. In addition it is impossible that Shields cap hit in 2014 would only be around $2,3 million as you suggested. I would be shocked if EDS gets $6 million a year. If he does, his cap hit should at least be a $1 million higher than what you suggested. Same with Pickett, no way the Packers are going to pay him $6 million a year as he'll turn 35 in October. Cap hit in 2014 again would be higher. Finley won't play another down for the Packers, most likely in the NFL. FYI roster and workout bonuses count against the cap. Banjo's deal would be for $490K next season, Flynn's two-year would have to be for $1,6 million, with $730K counting against the cap in 2014 (veteran's minimum). Not sure what the tender for Lattimore would be. Cutting Brad Jones, Bush and Tolzien only saves us roughly 900K in cap space. Here are the free agents I want the Packers to re-sign: James Jones, John Kuhn, Andrew Quarless, EDS, Matt Flynn, Sam Shields, Ryan Pickett, Johnny Jolly, Mike Neal. Shields will demand huge money, would be fine with paying him $8 million a year. Don't overpay for Jones, EDS or Neal, offer the rest contracts close to the veteran's minimum (throw some incentives in for Jolly). Restructure Tramon's contract, sign Chris D. Clemons and Akeem Jordan or Arthur Moats. [/QUOTE]
