How did those upgrades work for Denver last year? The Packers were 3 minutes from the SB last year, and with the exception of the unknown at cb, have retained all the key pieces of that roster.

When did Ted pick up peppers, guion, linsley, adams, haha, or r.rodgers who all made appreciable contributions to last year's team?

The seahawks just dropped a starting C and a 1st round pick for a TE who can't block on a run-first team and you're anointing them NFC champs already?

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Am I the only one who thinks Richard Rodgers can be a star in this league?

I'm not saying it couldn't help their team, maybe it'll be huge for them, I don't know. However, as I said in my post, the Packers added about 6 significant difference makers after the first week of the 2014 free agency season which helped carry them to within 3 minutes of the Super Bowl. This is 1 move by the Saints and we have no idea who the Packers will add the next few months. No need to crown anyone yet. Hell, the Packers and Seahawks looked like they wouldn't meet in the 2014 NFCCG at points during the season last year.

I wonder how many people realize that Unger was hurt and only played in 6 games last year. So the replacement was there for the Seahawks so basically they gave up the #31 pick for a Pro Bowl TE.

I would make that trade every time.

Super Bowl teams upgrade their teams by addition not by staying stagment.

You do realize Cobb is the #1 rated wr free agent right?

Seahawks and Cowboys then us and Arizona

So lets take a look so far

The 2 time NFC Champs
Lose a CB
Lose a Center that missed 10 games last year


They sign an above average CB from Philly
And bring in a top 2 TE to help their offense.

The Packers
Resign Cobb
Resign the whale
Resign a backup lineman in Barclay

Lose 2 NT
Lose 2 ILB
Lose 2 CBs


Hmmm your right the Packers have the best of it so far lol
