And what does Mr. Thompson do? He signs unrestricted free agents on a crap shoot basis? No one said to sign mediocre FA's. No one said sign hyped FA's. No one said Washington/Dallas. What I will say is New England, Seattle, etc. The Packer's had no depth last year. Geez you guys jump to conclusions.
How about two players--A reasonable safety and a proven LB to take the constant double team away from Matthews?
The other option is to draft better. TT can chose. However, his draft and develop strategy did not provide the results over the two years on the defensive side of the football.
1. I am on board with this thought
2. "The other option is to draft better"... How the hell do you think we have all the talent we have/had? Rodgers, Lacy, Matthews, Hayward, Sitton, Lang, Jordy, Bahktiari, Cobb, Bulaga, Crosby, Jennings this all on top of guys who have unavoidable injuries like Collins and Finley. UDFA's Shields, Tramon. You must not remember the Sherman days for crying out loud.
Fine, let's just fire Ted and get it over with because he doesn't utilize free agency. He'll be unemployed for about 5 minutes and some other team will reap the benefits of hiring him.
