Bubba has the skills, it's all in his head, the Packers should make him work on the mental aspect of catching.
I hope so, and i hope they can straighten him out. Favre could sure use that red zone ability that he showed in the past.Bubba has the skills, it's all in his head, the Packers should make him work on the mental aspect of catching.
I went on the Packers website and looked how the team was built and I found this very interesting. Look at how many street free agents really play a prominent role.

Yes FLA.........but have you really seen an impact player of White's stature available? I sure haven't.
So...........should TT just HURRY UP and spend the money on guys that really arn't that great, just so he LOOKS good?
Or should he really make sure that it's money well spent?
I have seen people at store sales run up and grab stuff that was on sale, JUST because it was there. They were pushed because of everyone else also running to get it quick, before someone else gets it! (The old "feeding frenzy!") It reminds me of the bidding wars i see NFL GM's do every year. They all run, with their money in their hands to get some guy quick, before someone else gets him!!!
And just like the people in the store, later they end up scratching their heads and saying "Man, did i waste he money on THAT junk!"
Stockholders of the Green Bay Packers make no money on their investment in the organization flapack.
the Packers organisation is keeping that money. It works very much like a foundation.
FLA your having a bad morning aren't you.
TT has a budget and he will spend it, just has he has every year prior, as Sherman did before that, etc. If he didn't spend it at years end then yes, you can complain about his not spending. Last year at this tinme he didn't spend either. He will. Remember, a lot of good players will get realeased by June 1 for bonus reasons.
When you are sick, do yo allow a doctor to make sure he diagnoses you properly, even if that takes time. Or do you demand he give you a shot, any ole shot, just as long as he looks like he is working?
Haste makes waste....usually.

Im having a good morning actually. Its just hard to sit back and smile when good teams are getting better and we are just sitting on our hands smiling as good player after good player go by. While our general manager is visiting draft picks we have no intention of getting. While Bubba Franks is still #1 on the depth chart.
Maybe that is fun for you and you like to think long term progress like 5 years from now we will be good. But honestly, that is not true either.
todays NFL is a now league. Win now, not later. Look what happened with our offensive linemen who left and Javon Walker who left.
Are we going to develop our young players just to have them walk on us again? Because it wasnt fun the first time it happened.
