NFC Notes: Packers, Seahawks, Vikings

Packers

• The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman mentions the Packers could still re-sign CB Tramon Williams, OT Jared Veldheer and RB Tyler Ervin.
• Schneidman also mentions Buccaneers WR Breshad Perriman, Colts TE Eric Ebron, Broncos DL Shelby Harris, Bills CB Kevin Johnson, Chiefs WR Demarcus Robinson, Saints CB P.J. Williams and Bears WR Taylor Gabriel as some outside targets Green Bay could add to bolster the roster. 
• Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel mentions recently-released Rams LB Clay Matthews could be an option for the Packers if they can convince him to come back. 
• Browns’ recently signed LB B.J. Goodson’s agent, Christina Phillips, said there was “mutual interest” between Goodson and the Packers prior to him joining Cleveland.  (Jim Owczarski)

Seahawks

• While DE Jadeveon Clowney has been hoping for elite pass rusher money, NFL Media’s Mike Garafolo reports Seattle’s offer to re-sign Clowney has been in the tier below that.
• ESPN’s Brady Henderson reports that Seahawks S Tedric Thompson had a market at last season’s trade deadline.
• However, Thompson’s shoulder surgery and raise to $2.133 million may have scuttled much of his potential market. 
• Seahawks OL B.J. Finney‘s two-year, $8 million deal includes a $2 million signing bonus, base salaries of $2.5 million (guaranteed) and $3.075 million, up to $425,000 in per-game active roster bonuses, a $500,000 annual playing-time incentive and a $500,000 playing-time base escalator in 2021. (Aaron Wilson)
• Seattle would like to re-sign G Jordan Simmons despite declining to tender him as an exclusive rights free agent, as that wouldn’t have allowed them to do a split salary to account for injuries. (Henderson)

Vikings

• Regarding the Vikings trading WR Stefon Diggs, Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated does not necessarily think Minnesota will select a receiver in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft since there should be talent at the position available “well into” the third round.
• According to Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, the Vikings made an offer to CB Mackensie Alexander but he elected to take a one-year, $4 million deal with the Bengals. 
• Vikings DT Michael Pierce‘s three-year, $27 million deal includes a $6 million signing bonus, base salaries of $3 million, $7.9 million and $8.9 million, and up to $500,000 in per-game roster bonuses in 2021-2022. (Aaron Wilson)
• Pierce’s 2020 base is guaranteed, while his 2021 base is guaranteed for injury at signing and fully guaranteed the third day of the 2021 league year. $1.1M of his 2022 base is guaranteed for injury at signing and becomes guaranteed for skill-cap on the third day of 2022.
