[QUOTE="PikeBadger, post: 566668, member: 8789"] I'll throw in a few tidbits for thought here. I think Ted has morphed some through the years of injuries this team has suffered and views the PUP as another tool to inject fresh players onto the roster. Thompson is a very patient man. I think he knows he's going to need more players by the time November and December roll around and someone like Guion has a body of work they feel comfortable with. Guys aren't static. Guion was hurt and needed some time to recover health. He may or may not be 100% at this time. Either way, it gave Thompson a chance to get a good look at young players who don't have Guion's experience and body of work. When you maintain cap disciplinelike the Packers do, and you know you have a contending team, it's not imperative to sacrifice November games for September games. I think Ted basically tries to accumulate and hold as much talent as he can using every tool he can to do so knowing that he'll most likely need them all. Very few players can give you high quality play throughout a 16 game season. Most have flaws that can be exploited and the inevitable nicks and lesser injuries exacerbate the flaws. [/QUOTE]
