Packers release Mike Daniels (in the last year of his deal with a $10 mil salary). He's a big name, but he's really only a 3rd down rusher with this team. He struggled to fit with Pettine last year (10 games - 2 sacks, 5 QB hits and 18 tackles) before hitting IR with a foot injury. I think he'll be a nice addition to a team on a cheap contract, but I can see why GB cut him. There's as good a chance that he ends up on the IR again this year (and the team eats the $10 mil) as there is that he's a productive player living up to the 1-$10 mil deal.
