Opt out impact

[CJD]

There may be more opt outs, but I'm looking at the list of players who opted out and some teams got hit pretty hard.
Arizona, Buffalo, Chicago, Green Bay, New England, NYG and NYJ each lost what I would consider an impact starter, with New England losing 4 starters.

I feel particularly bad for Green Bay fans because they chose to draft a back up QB in the first round rather than a WR, when Rodgers has 4 years left on his contract and is not showing signs of wearing down, when they had almost no weapons for Rodgers. Defenders of the pick often cited Funchess as justification for why Rodgers will be fine, since he was the only other "viable" threat next to Adams.

Now, Green Bay's receiving corp is Adams + some guys named...Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Equanimeous St. Brown, Reggie Begelton, Allen Lazard and, of course, the wonderous Jake Kumerow.

That may be the worst receiving corp in the NFL.
