Two teams, per source, to watch in pursuit of Morgan Burnett: Chicago Bears and Cleveland Browns. Could be more. #Packers free-agent safety is going to have a market.

Do not get the safety love. Maybe talks with Amos are getting pricey?

I'm guessing it's input from Fangio and Nagy primarily. Tired of giving up 3rd downs.

I think they're done with Deon Bush, tbh. Don't see Bush making the team. I see this as a depth move. We also got rid of Demps too and Deiondre Hall hasn't been able to stay healthy, so the depth isn't great.

Deon Bush can't leave soon enough. And I agree, this would be a depth move, nothing more.

If he can be had for depth price, then I think, as a former Packer, he would also be subject to tortuous interrogation.
