[QUOTE="adambr2, post: 491657, member: 7277"] And once again, there is a salary cap that all teams have to work within, so this strategy, as simple as it sounds, is not always possible, as tough decisions sometimes need to be made. Don't you think all teams would do this every time if they could? Giants just released Bradshaw. Falcons just released Michael Turner, John Abraham, and Dunta Robinson. And that's just from THIS offseason so far. So there goes that argument right there. This is all just for the sake of argument, because again, the Packers did not release Jenkins, he was a free agent. He signed somewhere else, just like many other free agents do every year. The 49ers are probably going to lose Sopoaga in free agency, and they don't have someone equal or better to replace him. This happens to EVERY team. This does not make them idiots. Also, on the teams you named, the 49ers did not consistently win until 2011, and the Falcons still have yet to reach the Super Bowl in this era. The Patriots haven't won it all since before MM and TT were in Green Bay. We seem to be doing just fine here. We have a Super Bowl win in 2010 and are a perennial playoff team every year. The grass is not always greener on the other side. [/QUOTE]
