It's just too bad Megatron couldn't come to Green bay. With the defense the Packers had last year and with our biggest problem being WRs, that team with him might have won the drat super bowl.

His cap hit was like 25 million this year if he played. Good work, Mayhew.

It's really hosed up of him to retire instead of joining my flag football team

I mean in retrospect, being historically bad enough to get a lot of top end talent through the draft at the worst possible time in terms of rookie contracts is pretty Lions.

So has Calvin said at all what he's doing post-football?

Hindsight is 20/20 but we mortgaged the future for Suh, who didn't want to be here and left anyway. I don't think you can defend putting yourself in a situation where one player has a 25 million dollar cap hit, no matter what the circumstances. That's poor cap management, and everyone knew it as it was happening. "This is really going to suck in 4 years" was a very common response at the time.
