I don't know Hagan, thought that would have happened this past offseason and we'd gone after Danny Trevathan...

Got to be "available"...

Cap $3,200,000
Dead $3,250,000

IMO this saved him in 2016.

50-50 for a player that's rarely "available"? Take the hit and move on...

At least be consistent as we were in the cases of Westbank and Junior...

Then you can game-plane, scheme all week with better preparation, chemistry...

Re: 2016 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook

A packers buddy is mad as heck about this one also. he likes the risk the saints are taking with the players we are picking for special teams. Despite great special teams play his play as a safety is questionable

GREEN BAY - The Packers negotiated an injury settlement with safety Chris Banjo, allowing them to release him to waivers.

It became clear the Packers were going to negotiate a settlement after they placed Banjo on injured reserve with a minor hamstring injury. When the injury isn't expected to last more than six weeks, the player is put on injured reserve with a "minor" designation.

The team then has to work out an injury settlement or allow the player to rehab until healthy and then cut him.

Banjo, a popular figure in the locker room and one of the team's best special teams players last year, was limited to two games this season because of the hamstring ailment. He played in 37 regular-season games for the Packers over four seasons.


Packers release safety Chris Banjo

What this makes me wonder is this, depth at safety?

Well, I hope it works out because we sure didn't keep the last Packer that those fans were upset was left exposed to waivers...

The pending loss of Mauti is important to special teams, but he was as important to linebacking depth, not safety depth...
