[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 850269, member: 7261"] Are you trying to say that the Packers can't improve at ILB in 2020 through any means other than the draft? See, I don't buy that. The Packers are probably going to be picking in the last 1/4 of the first round. Expecting to improve the position with that pick or a later one, is a crap shoot at best. If there is still a glaring hole(s) at ILB after this season ends, IMO the most effective way to try and plug that hole(s) is through Free Agency or a trade. You are acquiring a known commodity. Sure, go ahead and use a draft pick or 2, but that is running a higher risk of the position still being weak in 2020. We tried that crappy approach at CB for how many years? Had we not signed the Smith Brothers, Gary wouldn't have been the answer at OLB right now either. I understand that the draft can be an excellent place to find your future talent, but trying to draft instant starters, at positions of weakness, is a dice roll I am not in favor of each year.
