[QUOTE="BACKIN-PACKIN, post: 50284, member: 483"] A few months back some Packer fans (on another forum and before I came to this forum) were clamoring boisterously about the loss of Mike Whale and Marco Rivera. Regardless of what the price, some could not justify the losses. I felt at that time, and I still do, by the way, that TT had bigger and better plans in the making but the exorbitant cap created by Sherman would not permit him to make any moves. As a result, TT got blasted again by the same crowd. And that crowd wanted to stay with Sherman as their captain even though the ship was slowly sinking. It only stands to reason, if you want to make ground shaking moves in todays' NFL, you better have some ground shaking money. Freeing up cap space like getting rid of Hunt, Diggs and others, opens up opportunities for better talent which TT seems to have a knack for in finding in the draft. This is not to say that he will not grab a few free agents if the price is right. So, Diggs' release is no surprise me; in fact, it may be the beginning of "opening new doors" in Green Bay, and the time to take a closer look at TT rather than prematurely blast him like so many others have done in the past without understanding his "hidden agenda." He will have to make his move soon, and now that he has the cap room, he will have no excuse for not vigorously seeking "fresh talent." [/QUOTE]
