Cory's Corner: The Packers don't need Nick Perry

And the reason is the news that broke on Monday morning. The Packers are interested in trading for Eagles defensive end Connor Barwin.

Barwin turns 31 in October and has averaged 6.3 sacks a season over his eight-year career. Perry turns 27 in April and has averaged 4.7 sacks over a five-year career.

Perry had an outlier season this year with a career-high 11 sacks, mostly because Clay Matthews opened things up for him on the other side. If Perry has his average number of sacks this year, his career sack number plummets to 2.6.

Barwin has a cap number of $8.
