No way would Jones have accepted those numbers last season or before finding out for himself how the market values him. Of course Thompson ran the risk of losing him but the roster is stacked and with the next man up, the offense would still have been potent. I'm glad he's back particularly at a price which doesn't screw up the Packers salary structure. This deal should make it somewhat easier to extend Jordy if Thompson wants to. And the 3-year modest deal (by NFL standards) should motivate Jones to succeed so he can cash in after two seasons (extension) or in free agency after 3 seasons.  According to <a href="http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/08/04/cap-room-snapshot-as-of-thursday/" target="_blank">ProFootballTalk</a> the Packers are about $11M under the cap. The Packers are in great shape all around.    </blockquote>
