He’s been in decline for several years.
His rush defense was always better than his pass rush, even once his pass rush fell off, but eventually it all goes.
It was a bad trade.
He “gave up” $10m to sweeten the deal for the cowboys.
But … the Pack was about to cut him and he would have gotten zero dollars, so he really jsut negotiated a free agent deal with Dallas and rather than let him test the market, we gave GB a fourth round pick.
He would have been a free agent and I doubt anyone would pay him even the “reduced” amount we did.
So, we overpaid twice.
