What do you have to give up to replace Nick Barnett? Jermichael Finley? Morgan Burnett? Pretty soon you either start giving up your higher round picks or you start running out of picks to give up to replace injured players. It's not wrong at all to expect the team to improve, but when it comes to reasonably replacing injured players, there's a huge difference between the way the fans want to do it and what makes the most long and short term sense for the team. One thing you don't want to do in a time of crisis is panic and over-react. In that respect, I feel Ted is one of the best in the business. He has a plan and he sticks to it, only making small deviations when necessary. Fans will overreact and demand all of these knee-jerk trade scenarios to replace injured players. For example, look at all the trade demands fans wanted us to give up for Marshawn Lynch or DeAngelo Williams. Most of those weren't reasonable- They were absurd.</blockquote>
