    The Combine is this week and we will have a better idea of where each player will be taken in the draft.

    With that said, @TorturedBlazerFan , I think our Packers will re-sign RT Bulaga and TE Marcedes Lewis.

    Then they will try to sign free agent bargains like the following (with estimated market value according to spotrac.com):
    NT - Michael Pierce (2 yrs, $9.5 M - $4.75 M annual salary)
    ILB - Joe Schobert or the cheaper option in Nick Kwiatkoski
    TE - Not sure if they go after to top options in Austin Hooper or Hunter Henry. They may go with Eric Ebron (4 yrs, $30 M - $7.5 M annual salary). He could potentially prove to be the best value free agent tight end available in March

    I think that will give them the upgrades they want at most positions of need while allowing them to go after the best players available in the draft. We should be able to land at least 2 top notch wide receivers, an offensive tackle and maybe 1 defensive player. They may even have a shot at a dark horse QB candidate falling in the draft and into their lap!

    Wonder what it would cost to get Emmanuel Sanders to go on the other side of Adams.

    According to Spotrac.com, Emmanuel Sanders' Market Value is 2 yrs, $20,040,475.

    I am not sure Packers want to spend money for a receiver via FA when this draft is rich with them. They have limited salary cap space this season.
