[QUOTE="PackerGeek, post: 164751, member: 798"] Just want to throw in my 2 cents on this topic. because there is a lot going on. First of all I don't think you can exactly say that Buffalo "scooped" him in front of us. I happened to end up sitting next to one of the assistant coaches a week before the draft at an awards dinner and asked where we were going to go with the draft ( No I really didnt expaect him to tell). Anyway he told me they wanted Lynch but he wasn't going to fall past Buffalo so they would either have to move up or they wouldn't get him. So, They knew exactly what would take to get him they just weren't willling to pay for it. I don't see that as "Scooping" him up. ( I apologize if you didn't mean the term as I interpreted it.) As for Green yes he got an obscene amount of money from Houston, but that is why you get the deal done in December before he even hits the market. Yes, our running game will get better but I think you're fooling yourself if you don't think it will start slow. We are going to have some growing pains, especially in the begining of the year. Unfortunately with 4 of our last 6 games are on the road, so I Don't think we can afford to get off to too slow of a start. As for the subject of people who "Rant and Rave" for or against Thopmson, I think there are people who come here with an agenda rather than an opinion. [/QUOTE]
