[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 714852, member: 7261"] One of the premises of the "Draft and Develop" concept that Ted Thompson uses is that you draft guys, develop them and resign them, keeping them on your team for that second contract. Looking back now at the "Class of 2013", even with 11 draft picks that year, something didn't work out well for TT and the Packers.

It is starting to feel like the Packers have turned into "Draft and Pray" that the young guys can give a few solid vets the support that they need. Maybe we can start calling TT's model: "Draft. Develop. Replace" [/QUOTE]
