No Progress on the Mike Daniels’ Contract Front

The Packers and Daniels are reportedly several million per season apart, with Daniels seeking an average salary of $10 million.

The request isn’t ludicrous.

Daniels is the Packers’ best defensive lineman and he’s on pace for a career season.

Giving Daniels $10 million annually would slot him just below the top 10 defensive linemen in terms of average salary.

These are the players in that neighborhood (6-10) — Arizona’s Calais Campbell ($11M), New Orleans’ Cameron Jordan ($11M), Cincinnati’s Geno Atkins ($10.7M), Pittsburgh’s Cameron Heyward ($10.5M) and San Diego’s Corey Liuget ($10.25M).

Looks about where Daniels belongs to us, but the Packers aren’t budging at the moment.
