[QUOTE="adambr2, post: 748972, member: 7277"] The Patriots regularly supplement their drafts with free agency and trades and seem to do just fine. The Broncos won a Super Bowl on the back of a free agent spending spree. It works both ways. Also, the Redskins have had pretty shoddy QB play for most of the last 20 years, not one of the greatest to ever play the game, so it's hardly a comparable situation. On all but the rarest of occasions no matter how much you spend you're still not going to win without high end QB play. While I'm not advocating for going out and signing every high priced FA just for the sake of doing so, it's becoming pretty clear that the time for playing for tomorrow has passed and a premium needs to be put on the next 4-5 years. Rodgers needs to be surrounded with premium talent and playmakers on both offense and defense for the remainder of his career if he is to have any hope of retiring with multiple Super Bowl wins. Yes, you're likely going to end up with cap trouble and a full rebuild from the ground up after Rodgers retires -- but until they find their next franchise QB, that's clearly going to happen anyway under the status quo.
