[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 976741, member: 6578"] [B] In the manner which would satisfy you, or some others. There is a massive key and difference there. [/B] In Gute's time he has used 7 draft picks over 5 drafts on WRs. He has brought in Randall Cobb, Sammy Watkins...more may be escaping me now but believe that is man trades or FA signings. MVS grew into something special in the groove of what he is receiver wise few are (no for those reading this, that doesn't mean I view him as a guy you want as a #1 or even #2 depending on TE or RB weapons that wouldn't work, but he brings special traits). Otherwise though, for whatever reason none of his other draft picks from 2018-2021 have had or did have it click for them at least here in Green Bay. Gute also was willing to sign Adams to a crazy (some would say idiotic) level type contract, Adams merely chose to go back home rather than stay here with Rodgers. For years many fans have also been saying we have to provide Aaron and the offense a better and more capable defense (plus special teams). There isn't a single team out there that can prioritize spending in FA or day 1 of the drafts on every single position on a roster - at some point at some position you have to roll dice on familiar players to you already, Day 2, 3 or UDFAs or unproven or mildly successful guys elsewhere on digestible contracts (think Rasul last year, Campbell even...Veldheer, Dennis Kelly, Rudy Ford and Nixon good examples this year). I am saying all this because it is true, not because I'm necessarily a fan of first how things have turned out or secondly because I would have done the same.
