Lazard expected to sign with us for $10M APY per Rap.
Good. Didnt want to give him much more. To me he is a direct replacement for Davis and a slightly better fit given Rodgers. Was worried we would overpay but that is similar to Davis from 2 offseasons ago.

That’s nuts, I would have thought Lazard would be $13-$15 million. If you get him for the same price as Davis, you get younger, healthier and better for the same price, and extending the “cheap” wr deal into the future which will only look better as WR salaries increase over time.

freak it, regardless of Rodgers, bring in Lazard for that deal.

Let’s go

Bigger guarantee/more years than I would like. But APY is better than expected so I'll take it.

I’d like Lazard regardless of Rodgers or not. He’s a solid player and, most importantly, not Corey Davis.

Really only a guarantee he'll be on roster for 2 years. One of those with A A Ron (presumably). Not the end of the world

Jason from OverTheCap threw out MVS as a potential trade option (unsourced).

He actually would be a good fit here. We don't have that pure deep threat.

I’m curious, do we cut Davis, or trade him? I’d imagine he has some value around the league at his price as an expiring deal.

We'd have to cut ties with Corey Davis and Elijah Moore.

Garrett Wilson
Allen Lazard
Randall Cobb
MVS

OBJ slides into WR2 if that happens.  Wilson becomes slot threat.

Yeah I don't think Lazard is great but I think his skillset fits very well with Wilson and that is a fair contract for whoever is QB
