It is an angle that you should look if GB decides to take that approach this coming Feb.

They certainly could go that route, but just to play devil's advocate again, if nobody meets their price they would be stuck paying him even more than Rodgers (about $14.5M) to sit on the bench. Plus they need to get a deal done with Finley so they might want to use the tag on him instead. They'll definitely have some tough decisions to make. I don't see them letting him walk for nothing either.
