Message: <blockquote data-quote="Deleted member 6794" data-source="post: 656580">I would really love to bring some of the fans believing Thompson can't do wrong to truly evaluate his moves this offseason.Just imagine for a second that the Packers would have drafted Trevathan and Ladarius Green in 2012 and would have let them walk away in free agency for the contracts those guys signed this offseason.On the other hand in this parallel universe, Thompson would have added Guion, Crosby, Taylor and Perry in free agency at the same price.Would you guys still like his offseason moves??? I don't think so.Bottom line, Thompson's job is to improve the roster using all methods available and it doesn't matter if he achieves that goal by re-signing players, bringing in a free agents or using trades to acquire help. In addition he has to make sure to not overpay for any players.There's absolutely no denying that the Packers haven't become any better this offseason, using valuable cap space to re-sign mostly backups.The draft is the best way to build a stromg nucleus but only relying on it isn't the way to go, especially as all other teams use it as well.</blockquote>
