A lot.7, 8, 9 million a year probably.All it takes is one team to throw an inflated-offer at him and we could lose him.With that savings, Teddy could keep 3 guys like a James Jones, Johnny Jolly, and a Mike Neal.Plus next year Jordy's bargain contract is up, and so will Randall Cobb's be.Or he can use some of that $8 million and add a veteran safety, LB, and draft another CB.The CB's on this team are not bad.Tramon, Hayward, House, Hyde.See a few of these reasons why Shields is too valuable to let go <a href="http://www.packersmagazine.com/" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</blockquote>
