[QUOTE="AmishMafia, post: 521071, member: 2846"] There are many ways to build a team - I never stated there was no grey area. Ron Wolf was Ron Wolf, he had his own style and reasons for them. The NFL has changed and I doubt Wolf would be as successful today as he was then. I think the 'TT way' is nearly always to go with draft picks or UFAs. I guessed at the reasons I stated, but they do sound like logical ideas to me. Bringing in several FAs each season would be a detriment to his particular system - or at least - what I perceive as his system. Woodson and Pickett were brought in when this was a different team. There was to be a major overhaul in personnel and those two players had the opportunity to develop with the new blood. But clearly, having by far the fewest players who have ever played for another team, is some kind of tip-off to the MO of TT. As far as sticking to one system as being foolhardy, the Packers are arguably the most talented team in the NFL this season, and the past few. If that wasn't the case, I would agree with you. I don't know how much the synergy/locker room is affected by bringing in FAs, but why mess with something that is working extremely well. You know, there are 31 other GMs vying for the same players and trying to stock their rosters as best they can. TT has them all beat to hell. And when you consider we continually draft at the end of the round, that is a very impressive feat by TT. To me, asking TT to change his process would be like asking Rodgers to change up his throwing style. Why mess with something great? Rodgers doesn't complete every pass and TT doesn't hit on every draft pick and every position; but you know what? They are about the best at what they do - let them do what is working. [/QUOTE]
