Some of you people crack me up, you are willing now to take some old players that really haven't done much lately but were against going after Ray Lewis and Brian Dawkins proven winners and players that will be here for a few more years.

Well you don't want to over spend on older players. That's a BIG no no in any sport. I'd prefer to draft the play maker positions, if possible. And fill in the weakness with the best possible options possible on the market.

The best possible DE for the 3-4 is someone like Canty or Olshansky. Then drafting Orakpo or Brown. Raji if he falls can be a big play making dominating NT. But then after such, we can sign some situational veterans for depth and situational plays.

I am sick of people saying we should get Ray Lewis.

I also can't believe this topic made it three pages since I last checked.

Classic hilarity.

We need to go after Olshansky. We're going to lose Jolly most likely because of his legal issues, and we're paper thin at D line right now. Olshanksy is a must. I would have preferred Canty - I think he's part of the reason Demarcus Ware racked up 20 sacks last year - but Olshansky will have to make due.

Now for the free agent that I want more than any other....GRADY JACKSON. That man is a 380lb wall who was awesome when here and I have no frigging clue why we let him go. He doesn't work hard in camp? He weighs half a ton! I'd have trouble breathing too if I weighed that much. But when he's on the field he is disruptive, sucks up blockers, and just flat out performs. He would be an awesome force to spell Pickett in the middle. If we pick up Raji in the draft - that's icing on the cake.

Then our D-Line looks like:

DE - Jenkins/Olshanksy/Harrell/Jolly
NT - Pickett/Jackson/Raji?

And if we did pick up Raji, the guy is athletic enough to line him up at end even. Imagine the goal line packages!

If we got Grady, I wouldn't go for Raji in the 1st round. I would definitely go after Brian O-sack-po. The dude is a physical monster, he benches over 500 pounds and squats over 600!

Man, I'd love to see him in green and gold, running straight through linemen and physically assaulting the QB.

I'd like either of them to have been with the Packers. Even in the later years of their career for the same reason I'd like a Jason Taylor, leadership, veteran leadership.

Why wouldn't you want Ray Lewis PackOne? Is it because he is a winner. or maybe because he demands excellence from his team mates, or is it maybe because he has experience in the 3-4 and would take away Hawk or Barnett's starting job?

We have no clue how AK, Hawk, or even Barnett will even play in the 3-4 they could be crap or they could excel.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

If I'm not mistaken, isn't Mark Tauscher NOT a Packer anymore? We didn't resign him or anything did we?

Well there's a pretty good OT from the Eagles that's a FA and his name is John Runyon. Dude's a monster (physically-wise). He is 6-7, 330lbs. (I just saw his name on a FA list, don't know if he was signed.)

Or we could just re-sign Tauscher.

He is a winner, yes. One reason.
He demands excellence from his team, yes. Another reason.
He has experience in 3 - 4, yes. Another reason.

You kind of answered your own question for PackOne there bud 🙂

I was wondering the health of Runyon, or whether his agent has a list of certain teams that he'll entertain offers from as I agree when I saw he was available I was pretty excited about the Packers making a bid for his services. With more time and better blocking this team could be deadly on offence. It is already well above average.
