Found this article and thought it was interesting...
Brief Summary.
-53% of plays from scrimmage were from players who are still on the teams that drafted them
- The Packers (81%) had the highest percentage of plays from scrimmage by players we drafted
-The Packers (39%) were tied for the highest percentage of plays from scrimmage by players retained after their 1st contract.
Basically we hang onto our own guys and on average it translates to more wins. Ted typically keeps guys for 2 or more contracts and then evaluates them after that for future deals. This leads me to believe that Cobb/Bulaga/House will all be retained and guys like Tramon will be able to sign elsewhere.
