Thus, I wouldn't consider what the Packers got out of him as a Packer a good 2nd round investment.  I disagree with you there, the mere fact that they were coming off a 13-3 Season and didn't lose a ton of guys in Free Agency, should be enough to feel comfortable with your team at least making the playoffs.  However, I do think he either was too comfortable with what he had and thought they would improve enough to get to a SB or he realized that he was short too many key pieces and if he didn't draft for 2021 he would be yet another year away starting next season.  Agree, but not at the expense of going all in on just one season by overspending and mortgaging yourself for the future. It's a fine dance each year of not over committing to that one single goal in that one single year. I can think of one event that the Packers probably could not overcome to win a SB, that would be the loss of #12.  So to tie a few of these posts together, I wouldn't be surprised if Gute viewed Love as not just the QB of the near distant future, but also a QB that eventually will be a quality #2 that could step in if Rodgers went down.  (Please lets not start the debate of why he is currently the #3 after no preseason and very little camp)</blockquote>
