[QUOTE="Jordyruns, post: 513521, member: 3538"] I could see Finley and Raji going through similar train of events that Jones went through during the 2011 off-season. No way do they get big bucks or a lot of attention from other teams. Yeah the talent is their but their execution has never been consistent to say the least, just like Jones back then, and other teams know this. I could see other teams only offering them deals similar to what the packers will offer them. So my guess on these two is TT lets them test the waters knowing there is a good chance they will come back after seeing the reality of their market. Jones should be resigned but only with his age in mind. I would rather have him a year too short than too long. I think the two sides have shown each other enough mutual respect over the years that Jones will be resigned to a very fair deal for both ends. Shields needs to show more if he expects big money. He hasn't looked anywhere near as good as he did last year and this will definitely affect his value for us as well as on the open market. So he could be resigned for a very reasonable deal if he doesn't pick up his play. So again with Pickett and Kuhn off the books as well as Williams probably taking a hit (and hell Finley would probably be resigned for less then he get now) I could see the Pack resigning 3 or maybe all 4 of these guys without really hurting their ability to resign guys like Cobb and Bulaga in the future. One problem I do have with all of these guys (with the exception of Jones now) is that they seem to be very up and down, inconsistent players. I don't know if resigning them to a long term deal would really be a good thing, but like I said this will hurt their value on the open market which definitely helps us cap wise. [/QUOTE]
