Packers Among Teams Interested in Signing Watt

[TW]

I was about to type up a story about the schnitzel in New Glarus - does that answer your question?

You did it! You mentioned schnitzel. I asked my wife to make it last night, and she did, using boneless pork chops. Fantastic! Served with egg noodles, and a white wine, and mushroom sauce.

We put veal on the shopping list for next week to make wiener schnitzel.

EDIT: Next week we will be making spaetzle with it.

So nothing here about GB having any real interest. I am thinking GB might have put in a call but likely have never submitted a offer.

Sources: J.J. Watt has offers from multiple teams

Free-agent defensive lineman J.J. Watt has received contract offers from multiple teams, league sources told ESPN's Dianna Russini.

League sources = agents
Condon works and runs the football division at CAA.

Possibly also. I just know agents place “leaks” to move the market. And since they are certified by the NFLPA they essentially are “league sources “

I wish JJ well, but I hope GB isn’t a player here.

This is one situation where I think they'd be well served by the TT attitude. Acknowledge what the player can add on and off the field, assign it a dollar value, make your case but stick to your guns and be prepared to move on without him.

JJ bring mostly leadership to a defense. But this defense is more then 1-2 pieces away championship D. This is a D that fired its DC and is going under a refit. If he wanted to come cheap to provide leadership to young guys fine. Otherwise not worth paying him while rebuilding a defense.
