    The Vikings have signed Ryan Longwell to 5 year 10 Million dollar deal with a 3 million Signing bonus!

    Maybe the Packers will get Vintieri After all?

    haha I just noticed that we got our Safety Manuel for a cheaper price. Same contract million dollar less.

    Longwell is overrated. Bad signing by the Packers. I think they could of used the money elsewhere.

    I kind of got excited for a second when I saw Packers there lol!

    Im a big Longwell fan even now that he's with the enemy.

    Hopefully the Pack can get ahold of A V, Apparently he has some sort of connection to the front office.

    Don't know what I was thnking.

    It appears Minny has made quite the splash especially signing Chester Taylor.

    Looks like there all set to sign Hutchinston. They'll likley give him a contract maybe as soon as Sunday. Seattle will have to match it then if they want to keep Hutch.

    I really like Longwell and he won the Packers a lot of games, but his noodle leg kickoffs really sucked.

    He'll do well for the Vikings in the dome and hopefully the next Packers kicker will be a decent kickoff guy as well.

    The Vikings are really making a push... I'm (grudgingly) impressed.

    Vinteri Is very high on our Radar, I hope he's our new kick, Apparently Vanerjerk is targeted as well, But we all know how Vanderjerk kicks in weather.

    On the bright side, you could probably sign Vanderjerk by offering a year supply of Old Milwaukee as a signing bonus.

    226/277 not to bad of a career 82 percent fg accuracy that boasts pretty respectable numbers.. obviously not among some of the tops between the better 3 fg kickers vinaterri, vanerjact(best accuracy i believe), and david akers... thats certainly kinda ify giving him 10 mill but im not sure of all the stiuplations or how many years are on the contract maybe thats the general contract for a kicker but im sorta newer to this so .... but that seems like a high salary for a kicker ...

    I didn't know there were so many kickers out in the FA, should the same be said about punters?
