[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 566097"] That's an interesting question. If he's IRed, the Packers will be paying him $3.1 million...for what? The right to negotiate with him as free agent next season which is otherwise free of charge? The fact he's on a one year deal, with the only guaranteed money so far as I can determine being the $500,000 signing bonus that's already sunk money, makes waiving him a serious option. I believe we could "waive injured" him with a settlement. I doubt any NFL team would pick him up...guys getting picked up off of "waived injured" is fairly rare. Rarer still, one would think, for a guy owed this money with a season ending injury. If Raji comes back rehabbed and healthy, we can bid for him in the FA market, which is what we would have had to do anyway if we IRed him and paid him. Stay tuned...there are solid arguments to let him go. This was supposed to be his "last chance at redemption" season; he would not be the first player to get a "fail" for lack of "availability".
