Breeland is definitely worth keeping.

Breeland for sure. And dump Cobb and Perry
Anyone else only at bargain price if needed for depth. We need a good OL free agent to start and another good backup. Then draft a high pick. We need two free agents and high draft pick for edge rusher. And we need to learn from the Super bowl champions, they only had one offensive guy that couldn't be shut down. Edelman was half of the offense. We need a good quick slot receiver

Why they didn’t bracket the little lumberjack with 2 or 3 guys was beyond me! I was watching the pathetic game and thinking to myself...” if they would just cover Edelman and stuff the run... they have a good shot! Guess the fact that he was the MVP of the game suggests that I may have been onto something;)

Holmsmd, the Pats O-line played lights out. I think that was the difference.
That LAR D is loaded and the line still couldn't stop the run (consistently) and the secondary were too gassed to contain Gronk and Edelman down the stretch.
Sony Michel basically trotted in for the lone TD - right through the middle, no contact!

The three and out routine by Goff and Company was absolutely reminiscent of some painful Packer memories.

With Edge, I believe 1 FA and draft 2. I like Clellin Ferrell or M. Sweat. Or both. I have also fallen for a slot guy in Andy Isabella, who should be available a little later, and I like Hunter Renfrow from Clemson. H.R. runs great routes and has great hands and Isabella can fly. I leave it to the Packers staff to determine which they like better. Both look like improvements on Cobb. Spend money on a good free agent lineman, and draft another pretty high. I like the way you think.

If Breeland isn’t expensive, sure. Not a great corner draft, so need to build depth. Corners are always injured.
Like keeping Graham. Packers may draft two tight ends. Need the guy who was once the league’s best tight end to show ‘em the ropes.
Traman Williams really helped to young corner group last year. Love to see them get Jordy Nelson back. By all accounts, the guy is a tremendous mentor to young receivers.

Define expensive. I don't mind paying a premium. He has the talent, experience and provides the critical depth,we desperately need for everything to work. No time to be penny-wise and pound-foolish.

I'm expecting the bulk of our FA efforts to be focused on defense.

We should/will invite back all of our ERFAs, and all the minimum wage guys.
Cobb is going to cost $15 million for two years, but he's clearly the 2nd best we have.
Breeland is not going to start unless we have injuries, which we always do. I'd like to resign him but not for any big money. He's a backup who is unavailable due to injuries.

Allison had almost as many yards as Cobb, same amount of touchdowns while only playing 5 games to Cobb's 9. He is also 4 years younger and will not cost $15 million for 2 years. His recovery from groin surgery could factor in.

In addition to Allison, MVS had nearly 200 more yards than Cobb. ESB had about 55 less than Cobb All 3 averaged more than 15 YPC. All 3 are young and (presumably) ascending players.

Cobb has never risen to be second best option in GB

He was in 2014, hasn't been since.
