Packers LB Aaron Kampman Leaving Green Bay?

    A bigger question than when Aaron Kampman will be ready is for whom will he be playing. An unrestricted free agent regardless of whether there is a salary cap this off-season, Kampman can shop himself freely provided the Packers don't put a franchise or transition tag on him, at this point, the Green Bay Packers probably aren't willing to cough up the $8 million or $9 million it would cost to do so. So both sides will slow-play the market and see what happens, if Kampman can't work out for teams at full strength, it would be hard for them to sign him to a huge contract, one factor could be Kampman's desire to go to a 4-3 team so he can play defensive end again.

    The rookie Jones has been doing a good job replacing Kampman. I would hate to see him leave, but I really think he has played his last game as a Packer. I don't see them slapping the franchise, or transition tag on him.

    yep, he didn't thrive in the 3-4 and quite honestly i don't think he wants to play in a 3-4 so he will probably go to a 4-3 team where he feels more comfortable.

    the guy is not suited for the 3-4 defense better off in a 4-3 scheme.

    He has no reason to stay in a scheme he didn't fit in. Great job TT
