\"Green<\/p>\n

The Green Bay Packers have been locked in a stalemate with All-Pro cornerback Jaire Alexander, and the resolution still feels up in the air with training camp just over one month away.<\/p>\n

There have been multiple reports that the Packers have offered Alexander a restructured deal, but at least so far, Alexander hasn\u2019t made any overtures about putting pen to paper or arriving to take part in OTAs or Green Bay\u2019s upcoming mandatory minicamp.<\/p>\n

When mandatory minicamp begins, we\u2019ll get a clearer picture on where things stand between Alexander and the team. However, one analyst suggests it is time for general manager Brian Gutekunst and the Packers to move on.<\/p>\n

Green Bay Packers urged to Cut Jaire Alexander<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Over at Bleacher Report, analyst Alex Kay writes that cutting Alexander is the one move that the Packers should make this June.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile the Packers would have structured any trade agreement,\u201d Kay writes for B\/R. \u201cTo occur after June 1 (giving the team $17 million in instant cap relief against a $7.5 million dead money hit, rather than reversing those figures in a pre-June 1 move), the team could not find a taker for the talented but injury-prone defensive back.<\/p>\n

\u201cGreen Bay was also facing the same $17.1 million dead money\/$7.5 million savings split if it cut Alexander before June, but it now has the option to outright release him for far more significant savings. This immediate relief frees up more cash to spend on free agents ahead of training camp.\u201d<\/p>\n

If the Packers don\u2019t believe that Alexander can stay fully healthy, or that he is the same player capable of playing at a high level that he has been in years past, it would make some sense to cut ties, and look to use the $17.1 million in cap space to fortify other needs and plug other holes across the roster.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
