[QUOTE="warhawk, post: 142815, member: 431"] The one thing we do know for sure is that Brett is not going to be here much longer. Whether it's TT or whoever at GM they really have three ways to go: 1) Build the 53 man roster up and strenghen the team so it can be successful without a QB that can carry them like FAVRE, or 2) Go after guys now that give him the weapons to win and worry about the overall STATE OF THE TEAM later. 3) Go with a 'tweener" path where you build the team for the eventual departure but work to bring guys in that will also help you win now. The PLAN I see TT employing at this time involves keeping a relatively high percentage of "core" players on the roster for a considerable number of years. This is evidenced by the extensions of Wells, DD, Harris, and holding onto key FA's like Kampman, Jenkins, etc, AND, utilizing draft picks that sign multi-year contracts. We are pretty solid "core" player wise. I believe he is "hoovering" over FA looking for a player(s) that can make this team better but will not jeopordize the contingency plan for the post BF era. That plan MUST include an answer to the question "what do we do if Rodgers doesn't work out." Why? Because the guys unproven. It would be STUPID to spend three years building and molding a team only to find out you don't have a QB that can play AND you don't have the money to get one because your overpaying players you obtained in FA two years ago. That, in my estimation, is why there is caution in the decision making of who to bring on board now. There's a lot more to the plan but you look at the roster and we are more younger, more talented, deeper, and, more financially sound than we were just a couple of years ago. Those putting TT under the bus NOW are not considering things he MUST consider later on. There is a big picture here. I am not interested seeing things managed with a train wreck waiting to happen. The '80's were enough for me. [/QUOTE]
