This is a very big year for Green Bay; that 2nd rounder is an important player, and we can't afford the distraction. There are a number of questions that we need to have answered about the offensive line, but we need Belton in camp before we can accurately evaluate what we're looking at.One option would be to work out a Player Participation Agreement (PPA) that would get him into camp, and allow him to fully participate in all activities even without a contract while guaranteeing financial protections in case he's injured. I think a number of these ~30 teams may go that route as we get close to the report dates.If this mischief goes viral and spreads to 3rd, 4th, and even 5th rounders, they're going to have to hold the draft the day after the Super Bowl, and Thanksgiving Day games will be the season openers.The current CBA runs until 2031, and that's an awfully long time to have this hanging over our heads. I wonder if this is the sort of issue that the player's union would be agreeable to renegotiating in mid-term.</blockquote>
