[QUOTE="Anubis, post: 80493, member: 257"] Collins was a solid pick. Rodgers, while unproven, was the proper choice at the time especially when your HOF starter is flirting with retirement. Poppinga was showing promise prior to his injury. T-Murph was looking like a solid receiver, unfortunately he had a spinal condition that ended his career (a condition, BTW, which neither TT nor anyone else could have predicted). Granted only Collins has contributed, but the other players mentioned had the makings of a good draft class. So how can you imply the only two good players TT drafted are Collins and Hawk? I never said those signings were a good move. I stated TT got us out of impending cap hell. I also said that since getting us out from impending financial disaster, he has done very little to improve the team overall, save for when Favre pointed a gun at his head. Walker would have sat 10 weeks, suited up for 6 and walked out the door a FA at the end of 2006. We would have got nothing for him at all, and TT and the GB organization would have looked like chumps to the media, and hardliners to prospective replacemet receivers. Instead, we got a whack of young talent for dealing Walker, and was ranked by several media pages as the #1 draft class over all. You may say this is a bad thing, as Walker got the paycheque he cried for. However, you may firxt want to ask Mike Mackenzie for a second opinion about how the "demand a trade" thing works. I personally wanted Jim Bates for HC. GO PACK!!! Robert C. Hedley [/QUOTE]
