[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 1013552, member: 7261"] I agree that the Packer organization deserves a lot of credit for their success for so many years, while drafting late in most rounds. As far as the "League Rules" to promote parity, I absolutely love the way they do it and the Cap rule is by FAR the best thing that the NFL does, that most other major Sports fail at. I really don't think the Packers would be able to compete in the NFL if the salary structure was like MLB or the NBA. The only parity rule that I would like to see changed is "waiver priority". Currently, the team with the worst record from the previous season (up until 3 weeks of the next season has passed) or the present season (after 3 games have been played), gets first priority on EVERY player as they are released, except for the Veteran rule, that allows a veteran with 3+ years of experience, to sign with a team of their choice. Which is fine. However, I feel if a team claims a player, they should be rotated to the end of the list and every other team moves up 1 spot. How big of an impact has the way they currently do it been? Honestly, I don't know, but having that #1 waiver wire position in Sept, when teams trim their rosters, appears to be way too much of a "bonus" to me. [/QUOTE]
