[QUOTE="all about da packers, post: 136963, member: 227"] [size=18]THIS IS JUST SOMETHING I AM PUTTING FORTH TO GET SOME DISCUSSION GOING IN THESE SLOW TIMES, PLEASE LET'S KEEP THE AADP IS A TT HATER AND A MORON OUT OF THE REPLIES.[/size] I propose that the Packers are stuck in the past, trying to keep ties with the ever successful Ron Wolf GM era. My evidence: - Najeh Davenport said (and I am paraphrasing) that it seems like the Packers are doing things like they were in 96, hoping to have the same success. - TT was hired on the recommendation of Ron Wolf. Bob Harlan went to Wolf to get advice, but surely Harlan should have tried to get another outside perspective on some of the fresher, younger minds that are up and coming, ones that may become great GMs but just needed a chance. - TT has often brought up Ron Wolf's methodology when discussing his own practices. Ron Wolf said himself that the game had passed him by, so isn't it possible that Wolf's strategies were no longer effective when he retired? If so, why would TT employ them? - Edgar Bennett is the RB coach. He may develop into a good coach, but surely it might have been better to get a coach that has taught RBs in the ZB scheme, someone from Denver that could shed light on why (it seems) every RB put in the backfield has success. - Rumours indicate that TT is seeking to make a White like splash with either Thomas DE from the Ravens or Moss the WR from the Raiders. We have heard there being of talk of TT targeting a big addition that can have a big impact, but is that possible in todays NFL? Has any FA or player been available that would bring what Reggie White brought to GB? It is said that getting a player like Reggie was a once in a life time occurrence, so why is (apparently) TT trying to get lightning to strike in the same place twice, so to speak? - Our scouts and most of our talent evaluation dept. have ties to the Wolf regime, people like Reggie McKenzie. Why haven't we tried to bring in some new scouts, ones that may be let go with other teams or ones that may be up and comers? I think the person replacing Bob Harlan (I believe it is Jamal Jones) needs to get some fresh blood with a new perspective. [/QUOTE]
