So, then, you were against the Charles Woodson and Julius Peppers moves and by association the trade for Al Harris, Ahman Green, and Ryan Grant? Those teams obviously knew more than we did and that's why they traded them, correct?It would be foolish to ever trade or acquire someone else's free agent because they know them better than we do?

Ruminate on it. Seriously. Vic Ketchman is one of the worst "journalists" I've ever read. If you find yourself getting your opinion on the Pack from Packers.com it's definitely time to find a new source of Packers news.

You and I both agree that the team overspent by a million or two on Bulaga - that said I'm OK with him being back for the continuity and that it keeps the team 7 or so deep along the line. You overspend by a million or two here and there, it's not ideal but not the end of the world. You dip into that too much, or spend franchise QB money on Suh is what I'm not fond of.

The nature of free agency means that in nearly all cases you are going to overpay based on the talent of the player. So there needs to be another payoff like a Super Bowl or in some cases a GM keeping his job a couple more years, etc. Of course, there are exceptions.
Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

Ron Wolf has nothing to lose. He's not employed by the Packers. He can state how he feels with no concern how it affects the team. Ted Thompson on the other hand probably keeps his true opinions to himself so it can't be used against him. He probably will open up like Wolf did once he's no longer the GM.
