[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 1056650, member: 6578"] #2 is 100% playing out to be the case, and primarily a lot of that IMO is due to B level prospects or C level prospects just not advancing further...Wicks took only the smallest of steps forward, Reed at best was stagnant from rookie year, Doubs appeared to have progressed in many aspects but injuries (and he still doesn't seem to be more than a solid WR2 in all likely. The one thing majority of Packer fans are going to have to be okay with is in order to flip a B level constructed team is arguably letting go of some of those guys in favor of different ones which there are no guarantees they are better...and you can do this dance and fail much easier than do that dance and push it further. What you presented is one reason why I think you cannot offer Myers money in the offseason. Centers are, I may be stretching it, a dime a dozen - ONLY the special ones really separate themselves and impact things. I'm fully okay with an aging veteran or a mid draft pick or even just saying Monk its yours plan on it. I think Slaton is also another guy you let walk in the off season...again a big plugger like him is not easy to replace persay but he was NEVER special enough to justify us not rolling towards someone else. Does this mean we move a guy like Jaire or even Jenkins a year early rather than a year late....possibly...is the risk worth it. These are just a few of the items Gute is facing and many of these don't happen because it is always safer for a GM in Gutes' position to keep his job with what he has than risk becoming special or bust and likely lose it...
