[QUOTE="pizzle, post: 725952, member: 12428"] Exactly. What if any combo of Jake/Blake/Joe Thomas/Morgan Burnett has a significant injury that knocks them out of the lineup? Or what if Jake and Blake regress badly like the young corners did last season? You'd prolly want to move Clay inside-but how can you do that with how thin we are at outside backer? CM3 essentially has to be penciled in at ROLB on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd down for 75% of his snaps now. The only time you wanna move him now is in certain exotic packages Dom creates to fulfill a matchup advantage out of a disadvantage with certain teams. TT has taken away a good bit of the flexibility our defense had, besides just the production. I mean, If he simply would have brought back Julius Peppers on a 1 yr deal (I suspect JP would have been fine coming back to GB, but for probably at least 5 million/he gave Carolina a "hometown discount" since GB didn't give him an offer) and drafted another body that could have played OLB in pass rushing scenarios for our scheme we'd be able to continue to move Clay around. Avery Moss (graded at 5.4 to VB's 5.2 on NFL.com) has the size of Nick Perry and could potentially be a good EDGE player-Jordan Evans (5.4 to VB's 5.2 grade) out of Oklahoma looks the part of a speed/athletic prospect that you could line up at ROLB on 3rd & long and tell "you're either gonna go chase the QB, chase a pass catcher, or be a spy" + he could do it-Josh Carraway out of TCU (5.2 grade)-or Keion Adams from Western Michigan (5.3 to VB's 5.2 grade) ALL could have been drafted after we selected VB in the 4th round. To me, any/all of the picks after Biegel were not absolute must haves. Even the RBs/Dupree with our last pick. If we would have, say, drafted Keion Adams instead of Mays and TT drafted exactly how he ended up doing otherwise I'd be more understanding of how we have approached the position this off-season. But we chose VB over a guy like Carl Lawson, we ONLY grabbed one EDGE rusher via the draft in total, and VB already is getting dinged up/having surgeries before they even have put on pads in practice this off-season. Smh... JP is well worth 3.5 mil a year. Even at 5-6 mil a year I would have taken his production from last year/his overall production as a Packer/vet leadership/football IQ/potential big play ability in clutch situations. TT not bringing him back makes no sense. Oh, and we also let Dumvervil go to San Francisco-they don't even need the guy if you look at their roster.
