Will we get better through the draft? So far, Nick Perry and Datone Jones have not become impact players. They may be next year, but there isn't any reason to believe that it's a sure thing.
The holes that were there in this defense remain, and Ted hasn't done anything yet.
Some of you are saying it's crazy to overpay FAs on days 1 or 2. Sure, but Ted's 'wait and see until the market calms down' strategy to FA may save you money but doesn't leave you with much of any good FAs to choose from because they've all been signed.
Yes, you may find a gem, but has Ted found any gems using this approach to FA lately? Who was the last really good FA the Packers got? Jeff Saturday? <*****> He certainly came at a bargain. Or was it Charles Woodson whom the Packers were willing to dish out serious money for?
Once again this year it does look as if we aren't going to sign an impact player. Ted may sign a FA or two that will help a bit, but no impact players. What will that mean for this defense come September. Is it going to be that much better?
I won't bet my marbles on it.
There isn't any reason to believe a free agent from day 1 or day 2 is a sure thing who will come in and make the defense instantly better either.
I don't understand how so many people are acting like free agency is a sure thing when it's clearly not.
