Curtin is seeking his full base salary of $380,000 and O'Dwyer wants $205,000. Barring settlements, the grievances could take more than six months to be heard.Under the collective bargaining agreement, the Packers must count 50% of each grievance against their cap, or a total of $292,500, until they're decided through arbitration.What had been a fairly rosy-looking cap surplus of $4.1 million just 10 days ago now is in the $2.5 million range after the developments with Hunt, Curtin and O'Dwyer. That will limit the Packers' financial wherewithal to give their upcoming free agents long-term contract extensions.</blockquote>
