**Green Bay Packers Lock Down Solid Starter at Kicker Position** The Green Bay Packers' signing of kicker Trey Smack to a $1.1M AAV deal represents a measured investment in positional stability, earning a C+ grade from our Contract Value Index (CVI). At this price point, the Packers are paying for a solid starter who should provide reliable leg strength and accuracy without breaking the bank. The $1.1M annual value sits comfortably in the middle tier for NFL kickers, suggesting Green Bay identified Smack as an above-average option who can handle both field goals and extra points effectively. This signing indicates the franchise prioritized consistency over flashiness at the kicker position, avoiding both the premium costs of elite specialists and the uncertainty of bargain-bin options. The CVI assessment reflects a smart, low-risk move that addresses a crucial special teams need while maintaining salary cap flexibility for other positional investments.
