As some may know from my posts, I'm a Ted apologist. He has done a hell of a job building a team that is perennially one of the best in the league. Our record proves this. But, my trust is starting to wain for two reasons.
1. It's one thing to not being an active player in free agency. It's completely different to be opposed to it, as TT seems to be. Packers can't afford to be major players. But, we aren't hamstrung. We can afford to, and need to, add a veteran or two - at the right price - to shore up key holes, particularly on the D-line.
2. Brad Jones just signed for 3-years and $11.25M, $3M guaranteed. This another instance of TT overpaying homegrown talent. It's inexcusable.

It's fair to ask, is Ted the right guy for the job of putting the Packers in the best position possible to win the SB each year? A draft-and-develop philosophy creates sustained success. But, I don't think, by itself, it will allow the Packers to house more Super Bowls with the narrow window we have.
