[QUOTE="GreenBaySlacker, post: 664690, member: 9780"] Not a ground up restoration obviously.... If you go back and look at Thompson and McCarthys contract extensions... They coincide with big showings. Championship against Giants earned them a contract, and a rebuild started... We win a superbowl, and they get new deals. That rebuild was subtle because the superbowl run was premature IMO, and the team had not peaked yet... But never the less, Thompson pressed reset and started fresh on the 5 year plan. Which we seemingly were supposed to peak in 2015... We bought another year by spending Thompsons carryover cap space he saved the last 10 years, to resign this years free agents. Now its gone, and next years free agent class is big names, valuable, and we cant sign them all... I think thats a sign a rebuild of sorts, is coming...Or that was the trend the last decade at least. This year is a big year for Ted Thompsons team. GB needs to go far for Thompson to get another extension IMO. Safely. Rodgers can take this team to the promised land any given year. But when you start talking about 60% of the Oline, and the top back up (not counting the rookies) up for a deal. and Peppers, Perry, Jones, Elliot up for contracts... along with a bunch of other guys like Lacy, Hyde, Cook, Barrington, among other who might earn some consideration by next year....... So in short, we NEED to resign Lacy. We will at least need to find replacments for Hyde, Cook. BEFORE we spend the rest of our cheese keeping the most important parts of the Oline, and OLB corps... The next year Haha AND Burnett!!! Sheilds. Starks. Richard Rodgers. Adams/ Janis. Linsley and Lane Taylor... All will be expensive to retain. Some very expensive. [/QUOTE]
