What is up Packers fans?

Happy Friday. Welcome into an all new episode of the Packaay podcast. I'm your host, Andy Herman. You can follow me on Twitter at Andy Herman NFL and the podcast at Packaday podcast. Hope your Friday is going great. Hope you're off to a great start to the weekend and have a very enjoyable, safe and fun weekend overall. I have a soccer tournament for my youngest, so very much looking forward to that. But we've got a lot of Packer stuff to dig into, so let's dig into it right away. Today we're going to be going over our fourth deep dive today with Jagger Burton. Center from Kentucky really, really enjoyed going through his tape and breaking it down. So we'll get to that in

just a moment. Before we get there, we did have some news and notes from the Packers on Thursday.

First of all, the big one, LVN, fifth year option as a defensive end, 14.5 million one year guarantee.

Would you do it? Would you not do it? The Packer said, yes,

we are doing it. They did pick up his fifth year option. Again, one year, $14.5 million, fully

guaranteed that will hit in 2027. So 2026 was already set. His 27 salary will now be 14 and a half

million. There is a very strong chance that there will either be

some sort of restructure or an extension so that they don't have to pay all 14.5 million next

year. We'll get to that next year. That's not a this year sort of problem. But I've talked

about I was a little bit more on the fence with this one. And, you know, my initial take on it was,

hey, I think I probably just let him earn it. If, you know, if he goes out and earns it and

gets a contract in the 20 million per year range, awesome, you're happy to pay it. But free agency

changed that a little bit. You're seeing a lot of edge rushers that aren't that good going for 20 million or more

per year. Kingsley-Nigbari, right? I think Kingsley-Nigbari is a pretty good, you know, just sort of

reference point here. Enigbari of a okay season as a backup, as a backup, got one year 10 million

in 2026.

So Anigbari next year, in that like the same player next year in the same situation,

probably gets one year 12.5 million just based off of inflation.
