[QUOTE="okcpackerfan, post: 378543, member: 4994"] I don't exactly understand your thought process, but that's why the world has many different cultures. I can assure you that it absolutely is subjective and speculative on the front office part to determine a players worth and value. A player that could fit a good role on one team might be useless on another. Also a number of other reasons but this is basic knowledge. As to your point of saying "doesn't having one tall receiver give you more versatility?" Well the short answer is no. Now, dependent upon the offense and how well that particular receiver plays are infinitely more important then height. You, among a lot of fans get caught up on the height and speed aspect of a receiver, but if he can't run proper routes, get separation, catch the ball, secure the ball etc... then he will not succeed in the NFL. This is why slot receiver like Wes Welker who doesn't have world class speed and is 5'8 succeed in the nfl. Different wide receiver positions absolutely play an important role in the Green Bay offense, way more than me and you will ever know or understand. I never compared pro-football and high school football, I mentioned there are even different WR positions in high school ball. That would be like saying they use the pick n roll offense in high school basketball and you would think thats comparing a high school offense to the utah jazz for the past 20 years. I thought it was a rather easy comparison to understand. We just think differently, good luck to you. Go Pack Go [/QUOTE]
