The new GM better have a Damn good plan.
Right now the defensive backfield is pretty Damn weak.
I guess that's why he gets paid the big bucks.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Josh Jones, HaHa Clinton-Dix, and Kevin King will need to step up their games this season. BG, as aware as we are, will I believe be on the case. He has already acted to secure GB a TE and a DE. The Secondary and the WRs must be on the top of his wish list.

I'm glad that BG has not been recruiting scrubs. Yes he did not get Fuller from Chicago, but he did raise the price for the Bears to keep him. [smile]

Let's not get too excited just yet. This is just getting interesting.

I liked burnett; I Remember when he was first drafted - practically everyone was high on him. And when he broke his hand (or whatever) he was still our best guy out there (well at least we played him like it). Id rather he be able to catch the ball).

Wonder what they are paying him ie the steelers. He dont have any good veterans left out there do we? burnett was our go to go as a vet goes ... maybe devon house if he is signed.

woodson had lost a step but his veteran status and knowledge of the game was worth more then being just a good player.

Thompson got paid the big bucks too. Look where that got us.

I know it's tough to believe, but the Steelers are practically in our same situation, maybe worse, in the defensive backfield. This makes sense for them. I believe it's time to move on from Burnett, but he has been an above average player for us at multiple points of his career here, and I thank him for that. He's steady and talented, but he's not a gamechanger, and he is not getting any younger.

Burnett was really our only vet in the DBs. We are really young and HHCD is the vet now. I hope I am wrong, but I don't like not having a older vet in the mix.

Honestly the outpouring of venom at Thompson since he stepped down is very unbecoming. Try living through the 70's or 80's then come boohoo about aww we only got one superbowl and 8 straight playoff playoffs from this loser GM. The woe is me routine is embarrassing to fans of teams who actually have had to struggle, and to fans of the Packers who don't take their success for granted. Also the "wahhh but the patriots won a bunch we should too with Rodgers" line is so childish and demeaning to the other great players/teams I'm sick of hearing it. Get over yourselves Packer fans.

I liked Burnett he was a great defensive leader and the players had alot of respect for him. Its a tough business but his strong safety replacement is already on the roster imo with Jones + Dix, and the safety prospects who could be their at #14 play a similar game as well. Too many strong safety options when holes are needed filling elsewhere.

Yeah, that Super Bowl victory was horrendous, terrible, just utterly horrible. Wait, we LUCKED into the playoffs and LUCKED into everything that season. It wasn't anything to do with Ted Thompson. I am glad I corrected myself before I made a COMPLETE ASS out of myself.

Anywho, we have safety depth. We just have to give them more of a chance to get out there and get more experience. Let's not forget about Brice. He is a force when he is healthy. We don't need safeties. We need corners.

And I know he was a vet, but his numbers last year are pretty bland: 12 games - 3 passes defensed - 1 forced fumble - 0 interceptions. Yawn.

Wait, I thought we didn't like Morgan Burnett? Now we're upset he's signing elsewhere? I'm confused. I don't know if I'm supposed to be sad or happy.

Josh Jones will lay the wood down. I thought we believed he'd replace Burnett anyway?
