[QUOTE="adambr2, post: 545128, member: 7277"] Then Brad Jones must also be a good ILB, and Morgan Burnett must have been a good safety last year...Also, he hasn't been playing NT. He's been playing end. He hasn't played NT regularly since 2011. Yes, true...and I trust, and certainly hope, that he'll make the right decision. This isn't true so much as it used to be. Even though we're a "3-4" base, we're more often in nickel and dime packages. That's a very dangerous assumption to make. Albert Haynesworth was offered well over $8M a season, among many other players who never lived up to it. GM's do make mistakes from time to time, even the best ones. No, the goal is to win the Super Bowl by putting together a winning team as efficiently as possible, not overpay role players based on name recognition.. If Raji is one of our "best" players, why was the run defense so awful last year? No, it doesn't. The stats don't back that up, the eye test doesn't back it up, and even scouts and former GM's alike are saying Raji is "just a guy" which the Packers seem to have finally understood. Also, again, Raji plays mostly DE. The fact that you seem to be unaware of this is a pretty good indication that you didn't pay much attention to how awful he really was last season, no offense. It indicates that you're probably someone who has always liked Raji, feels inclined to defend him, and trusts the old mainstream reputations on him and assume they all still hold true, but haven't really paid much attention to him at all.
