[QUOTE="TJV, post: 615985, member: 4300"] As you should know, what you “care to hear” about makes absolutely no difference whatever. Just as “starting a thread bestows no right of ownership nor control of the topic”, making a childish comment about what you care to hear about in no way controls the responses of others. I first linked that article with the comment 'Packers Notes has an article on this subject'. In a later post I posted, “Rodney makes the point that the Packers have about $15M in cap space and only one must-sign UFA coming up next season in Daniels – and perhaps Hayward depending upon how this season plays out. So he says don’t be surprised if that number doesn’t go down much in the meantime and don’t be surprised if more than that is available to roll into 2017. [B]But a lot can happen in the next two seasons: A single play can change a player's fortunes - even a team’s season - so 2017 is far away in NFL terms[/B].” That’s the sum and substance of my preferring my “very own version”. Three sentences. Next I summarized my thoughts on HRE’s the ‘sky is falling’ in three seasons posting: “My point is there are so many variables involved with personnel going into this season: How will the 2015 draft picks perform? Which UDFAs will make the roster? Will any of them - or the draft picks - contribute significantly? If so, which ones and to what extent? Which youngsters in their second or third seasons will emerge this season? Which other players who haven't established themselves will succeed or fail to do so? Which established players will fall off or show signs of doing so? Will the emergence of youngster(s) make a player otherwise deemed 'depended upon' become expendable? What will be the impact of injuries? Will injuries cause the acquisition of FAs? If so, how will they perform and how does their status project into the future?
