[QUOTE="Shawnsta3, post: 459857, member: 5065"] You lost me at letting Jennings walk for a RB who helped his team to a 5-11 record last year. Like SpartChris said RB's are rarely an important factor in winning the Super Bowl. WR's on the other hand are important. Starting RB's for the last 5 year's Super Bowl winning teams: 2012- Brandon Jacobs 2011- James Starks 2010- Reggie Bush 2009- Willie Parker 2008- Brandon Jacobs Not exactly worldbeaters^ Starting WR's for the last 5 year's Super Bowl winning teams: 2012- Hakeem Nicks, Victor Cruz 2011- Greg Jennings, Donald Driver/ Jordy Nelson 2010- Marques Colston, Devery Henderson 2009- Hines Ward 2008- Plaxico Burress and possibly Hakeem Nicks, Mario Manningham or Steve Smith Apart from 2009 and 2010 this is a great group of WR's. And your saying you would rather be running the ball for 4 yards then throwing it for 9? These are MJD's and Rodgers averages last year. You are comparing WR's and RB's play after big contracts? Hahaha. Donald Driver is 37. How many RB's do you know that are 37? We'd be lucky to get 3 years out of MJD. Greg Jennings could easily play 7 more year's at a high level no problem. Can't see MJD and how high his workload has been making it to 34. And in recent memory how many players have come off a holdout and played well that year? Use fellow running back Chris Johnson for example. 3.7 yards per carry the next season. Garbage. Alex Green for half the money could get that with his eyes closed. Now I'm not saying if MJD wanted to come here on the cheap I wouldn't take him. But to trade a high pick for him(When we know how good Thompson is in the draft), Throw a ton of money at him and have to lose Jennings, Rodgers, Matthews or Raji in the process it makes no sense. And also like I said I could MAYBE see it if it was a great position of need. But it's not! We have Benson, Green, Saine, Starks, Tyler and Kuhn all on the roster who are perfectly capable of taking us to another Super Bowl! [/QUOTE]
