Message: <blockquote data-quote="I_am_smoked_cheddar" data-source="post: 515514">I believe Bus Cook was trying to say something similar to what I have. Sometimes we mean well, but it just comes out a little off center. I still feel that a few targeted trades(not draft picks), but known players  and /or possibly Free Agent acquisitions over the past few off seasons could have been of great value. Just imagine D.Reevis  playing corner for the pack, or W.Welker catching A.Rodgers passes, or J.J.Watt starting on defence.  I do not totally agree with crossing ones fingers praying that we get lucky with cheap, unproven rookies or believing that developing a player can replace raw talent that was never there (i.e. speed). Yes, the gems are sometimes drafted (Bakhtiari, Rodgers, Matthews), but to rise to the top level a team MUST have a championship quality DEFENCE. Woodman, White, Nitesky, etc. have been the D-leaders that elevated the play of their teammates to become Champions. Fiscal responsibility, while necessary. should be flexible enough to see beyond the balance sheet to recognize and fill special needs. I don't believe the executives can see past the end of their pencils most of the time.</blockquote>
