I don't have a good feel about the Packers keeping Burnett. To be honest, I think he's going to bolt for free agency. He could get up to $50 mill from a team that can use his talents. Just looking around, there are a lot of them. At the top of the heap? I see Oakland, and even Cleveland, the Giants, and Seahawks as possible homes. It would save all of them investing an early pick in the defensive secondary, and make them stronger.
I think the Packers end up out of the bidding about the time the paycheck reaches about $40 mill. They have way too many holes to plug, and this would be a cap eater they can't afford.
We're going to miss him, but we don't know how big of an impact it will make until after our coaching staff puts our team on the field. His role may have been significantly reduced anyway. It's difficult saying at this point.
