Former Colts C Jeff Saturday is headed to Green Bay!

The Packers traded C Scott Well to the St. Louis Rams, and now has the 13 season veteran on the roster. So far in his career Saturday started 188 games, all in Indianapolis.

He signed a two-year deal with the Packers worth 7.75 million, including 4 million this season.

In addition to signing Saturday, Green Bay also picked up former Colts DT Daniel Muir.

Muir was with the Colts from 2008-2011 and had 26 starts. Muir entered the league as a non-drafted free agent with Green Bay in 2007 before spending the next four seasons with the Colts.

What About Flynn?

 While every football fan in America is waiting around for Peyton Manning to make his decision about what team he is going to play for and how that will affect their team, the Matt Flynn situation has been somewhat overlooked…but today that may have changed.

There has been constant talk of Manning visiting and talking to Arizona, Miami, Tennessee, and Denver, but today it was announced that the 49′ers are just as interested in him, and that Miami is pretty well out of the mix, according to ESPN’s Adam Shefter.

Miami however, is one of the teams that Matt Flynn may very well end up at. To me that makes the most sense, but Flynn has also been meeting with the Seattle Seahawks. But with Miami not a front runner for Manning, it could definitely end up being Flynn’s new home.

Also today Packers former Pro- Bowler, center Scott Wells, signed with the St. Louis Rams.

Of course any team should be proud to sign Flynn or Wells, but Green Bay has been pretty quiet thus far during free agency…but when you think about it, you can’t blame them.

They were the champs of last years Super Bowl XLV, and went 15-1 on the regular season this past year…definitely nothing to complain about.

Although Green Bay hasn’t made any huge moves yet during free agency, it’s not over…so for now just sit back and enjoy watching other teams negotiate, sign players to huge contracts, and soak in all the exciting things happening around the league.
