admittedly i havent followed the NFl as much over the past 2 years but i thought barnett and matthews were going to be a LB duo for the pack for years to come . . maybe the rodgers signing really crunched their cap space .. but to be able to take a flyer on a nick barnett and see what he can contribute is a very nice luxury imo.
im just worried why no other team picked him up earlier.

Barnett was in Buffalo the last 2 years.
He was probably on the NFL scrap heap because he's a 32 year old LB. While he's still been productive there's not a huge market for LBs his age.
