What do you want to see happen with the Packers and Free Agency?

From time to time, a report will emerge that the Packers intend to become more active in free agency. Most recently, Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reported that the Packers will pursue free agents this year.

Burmeister in the video clip is exactly right... We went out and got a decent TE after doing nothing for years and it helped the team immensely. Paul said we should be drafting a really really good TE and see what that does because the decent one worked out pretty well. Not another RR, though.

Florio is a Vikings fan but he's right. I should add there are two things you can set your watch by... Vikings fans shooting off their mouths in July and August and Packers fans shutting theirs in January.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

😂 This topic in the media is a joke right ? Ted Thompson is going to all of a sudden change his MO ? But hey don't listen to me .. Nice quote from Andrew Brandt ‏@AndrewBrand > " Been asked about Packers being 'more active in free agency' for 15 years. Answer always "What part of Ted Thompson do you not understand?" he adds in the following " Packers have/will sign FAs, but they will be without strong markets (Woodson, Peppers included). We never wanted in on 'stupid money' phase. "

Kind of says it all.

Ted will sign free agents all day if they don't effect his complementary draft picks.

Therefore we conclude that the player will either have to be unrestricted or a previous member of our team. AND they will have to agree to Ted's financial terms, which is to say, they will have to fit within our projected cap structure.
