[QUOTE="sschind, post: 779224, member: 10247"] I recall Hyde's time here as a jack of all trades master of none type situation. He was not a guy who was going to win you games on his own but chances were he wasn't going to cost you any either and if you needed help he could fill in in many situations. I think you need a few guys like that as long as you are not paying them to much. When he was up for FA he was destined to get more than his past production (I don't like that word here but can't think of another. Value?) warranted so he was allowed to leave. I would have liked to keep him but not at the contract he eventually got. I don't recall if the Packers made him any offer at all but I don't think they did. I wonder what it would have taken to keep him around had they made an offer to extend him prior to him reaching free agency. Who knows, maybe he sensed it was Capers' scheme holding him back and he wanted a chance to prove himself elsewhere so he was going to test FA no matter what. Who knows if the Packers ever would have made a change that allowed him to reach a higher potential. It would have been interesting however to see an extension and the ability to shine now under new defensive leadership. Alas we shall never know what might have been. [/QUOTE]
