[QUOTE="DevilDon, post: 378549, member: 2057"] I'm not sure I understand your thought process either and I certainly don't think it has anything to do with culture. But maybe you can enlighten us as to how culture has anything to do with this. How can you assure me it's subjective and speculative on the front office? Do you work for an NFL front office? Sorry if your assurance isn't enough. Got anything else to back up your assertion? A good player is a good player, any NFL team with any kind of moxy would be able to use a good player. Please give one example of a good player on one team that would be useless on another? You also suggest a "number of other reasons but this is basic knowledge" Well you're not elaborating so let's say your assertions are that he's not crippled or being charged with murder. Those would be basic knowledge reasons not to hire a football player right? \ Having a 6'3" receiver isn't giving you more versatility? You say no but offer no reason why it doesn't. You say dependent upon the offense (let's say Packers cause it's a Packers board) and how well that reciever plays are infinitely more important. Well, Jordy has a better ratio of catch to pass, all other receivers on our squad are similar in height/weight. It's kind of like when you posted "this is wrong" you just kind of assume you have the final answer. I get that you deny height has any bearing on the NFL. But we're talking about Jordy Nelson, not some unknown, I think it's safe to say he's established himself as a receiver who can do all the things required of an NFL receiver right? I know you want to discount the SB but the guy did have 140 yards, that's not an accident, he made those catches to cement the world championship. One question.... Does Wes Welker suck on our team? I mean, you suggest an obvious fringe talent in height/weight only brings value to their team and their scheme, would Wes Welker flourish in Green Bay?[/QUOTE] Well now we're getting to the meat of the matter.
