8AM: It's Time for the Packers to Pay Tucker Kraft

Jen, Gabe and Chewy discuss Tucker Kraft’s return to 11-on-11 work and why he continues to practice without a contract extension from the Packers. Chewy explains the risk Kraft is taking and why the tight end should protect himself before participating in full-contact work. The crew debates whether Green Bay is taking advantage of Kraft’s team-first mentality and why paying one of its best young players should be an easy decision. Later, they turn their attention to Aaron Banks, his lingering knee tendinitis and the possibility that the Packers’ expensive free-agent addition may not even start. They examine Brian Gutekunst’s decision to invest in Banks and whether the contract could become one of his biggest mistakes as Packers GM.
