My point was that in the beginning the Pats hardly used free agency to nab players that put them over the hump..They picked up players for some depth..

As seasons went on that is when they filled needs right away with f/a and the 1st BIG name I recall was Adalius Thomas

Does that count undrafted free agents signed the year they came out? I think for all practical purposes those should count as players drafted. Or players who've never played for another team, if you will.

i'll give you Jenkins, but he was injured last season. to list a bunch of defensive players on a team that had a losing season mainly because of the way the defense played, is just not a valid way to prove your point.

You won't name Woody? You're kidding, right?

Woody has a shot at the HoF. 36 career INTs, and seems to have not lost a step at all. 8 INTs/1TD in '06. '07, had a fumble recovered for a TD and an INT returned for a TD. 4 INTs total. '08, 3 sacks, 7 INTs, 2 TDs from those INTs.

Unlike Neon Deion who I adore and own his jersey, Woody can tackle. He's a damn good tackler in fact, and has averaged 63 tackles a season since joining our team. That's pretty impressive for a CB. He plays the run very well.

I'm so stoked we have Woody on our team and defended Ted Thompson when we picked him up and it turned out I was right. If Woody has 3 more seasons like the seasons he's had with us, he's got a more than 50/50 shot of making the Hall.

Gotta give you Woody and Pickett. If we could pick up 2 more FAs like that at positions of need, with our draft, we would turn around in a hurry.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

Agreed. One solid guy on the DL who can generate pressure and take some double teams off of Kampy would make a world of difference.

The 2nd guy, I'd want on the OL, since you're talking positions of need.

the interesting fact i need to know is when can i expect the packers to return to the playoffs and compete for a championship??

Right now, i still do not see how Ted Thompson has made the packers a better team in 2009?

we hired a new defensive coordinator, so can I expect the defense to be better in 2009, and actually stop teams from scoring? does hiring a coordinator automatically make the packers better?

i don't think so, and if green bay posts another losing season, i think we need to take a look at Ted Thompson overall game plan.

with the defense and special teams playing so poorly, I have to seriously question the talent level and depth on the team. which is what another poster is trying to impress on the posters of this forum.

and there is only one person to point a finger at.

Have I ever mentioned how much I enjoy Hazer on this forum?

Hazer Has "A Beautiful Mind."

I love the guy! Great Internet radio (Check it out, I am serious.) and a great packer forum contributor.

Oh yes, he is out of his mind. But it is great.

It is like that movie.... "A Beautiful Mind" staring Russel Crow.

Hazer is in this shed in the back of his house, cutting out Packer stats, numbers and Packer atrticles, pasting them on the wall and talking to imaginary people.

Only Hazer see's the equation, not any one else.

But I love him personally. You just gotta love the guy!

Hazer has a beautiful mind.

Keep doing what you are doing my friend... R.P. loves you.

By this logic then signing Albert Haynesworth wouldn't of made the Packers better.

An upgrade is an upgrade know matter where it is. Whether it's in coaching or as backup players. Is Duke Preston and Anthony Smith upgrades? The answer is probably as they're better than the second stringers they're replacing. Is Dom Capers? I would say so.

I agree that the starters need upgrades, but you shouldn't dismissed an upgrade know matter what it might be.

packerfanoutwest (7h) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

wpr (8h) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (8h) : now 3

Zero2Cool (9h) : Who? What?

beast (18h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (22h) : meh

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
