I'm interested in getting reaction to what the Packers should do now that Grady, Javon and probably Bubba will hold out. If Hunt holds out, well he can occupy the B.J. Sander spot in the inactives when he returns.
Grady and Javon are under contract.
Bubba has no contract, but he really doesn't have an option...he can lose $2 mill if he sits out. It's not unlike what D. Darius faces in Jacksonville.
I say let Javon sit.
Grady is too old for a long-term deal. His contract is also cap friendly to another team. But the team was only playing him in 4 of 10 defensive plays anyway. The team has won since he came, but that isn't worth the money. The Packers don't have the cap space anyway.
One trade to consider....sending Bubba to Cleveland for Winslow, Jr.
Yes, I know Winslow is a head case and out all year. But if the Packers have to play without Bubba, at least they would have a good athlete coming in next year. Winslow just needs to grow up, which will happen.
Winslow would need to re-neg his contract, though.
