[QUOTE="El Guapo, post: 902831, member: 5830"] Agreed about being one of the top FAs. I love Bahktiari and want him on this team just like everyone else. HOWEVER, he is replaceable** and the money combined with Rodgers/Adams/Smiths/Clark makes it hard to sustain a winning team. I felt that we could have adequately replaced him on the left side with the guys we had but then add 2-3 other players that could impact the team. Thinking even more into the future, Rodgers only has a few years left with us tops. I would rather have AR dealing with a less-than-top-tier left tackle than Jordan Love or whomever succeeds Rodgers. It would be ideal if [I]that[/I] quarterback had an up-and-coming LT protecting him. At the moment, it will probably be a new LT about the time we have a new QB. I know that my opinion is different than the majority, but that's how I viewed the extension. I loved it in a world without salary caps. With our cap, I was not as big of a fan. **[I] Obviously you can't replace one of the top players at their position with a 1-for-1 swap. However, we have had plenty of guys on our roster step into the LT spot and do the job without giving up sacks. So replaceable means that we could still have someone good in there, but it would just not be at an All-Pro level.[/I] [/QUOTE]
