This is so dumb. Trade Alexander too. And Gary. Get all the picks for an old *** QB. Do the dumbest all in rebuild ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free agency has been an integral part of team building in the modern NFL, it's not all about just drafting and letting the kids cook for a number of years. Teams have formulas to win and win now. If it's not obvious the cap is extremely fluid just look at the Saints, they cleared like $80 mil in a week. The Bucs were able to sign a first ballot HoF QB in FA, which is something that almost never happens. They got a TE, WR, and RB for super cheap as their prior teams didn't want them or they had burned every bridge possible in the case of Brown. It was really pretty similar to what the Packers did in adding Douglas/Campbell. But the bulk of that Bucs starters from that team was drafted talent (Wirfs, Winfield, White, Murphy-Bunting, Dean, Vea, RoJo, Davis, Whitehead, Cappa, Godwin, Evans, Hargreaves, Donovan Smith, Marpet, David, Miller, Gholston). They had added Suh, JPP, and Jensen before Brady. Of their starters, 17 of the 22 were drafted. For the Packers, 16 of their 22 were drafted. Pretty sure it was the same in '21. The Rams are the outlier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StartBarr Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 I guess everyone is right about Cole Beasley. Didn’t know he fell off that bad. Still think Cordarrelle is the move to boost both offense & special teams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do the dumbest all in rebuild ever We still have to see what WRs we are able to sign, but this is an objectively good move IMO. If we were starting Love on his rookie deal then sure give Adams $28MM but this was unaffordable. If he wasnt going to play on the tag, would you rather sit on the cap hit and get nothing or get a 1+2 for it? Still stupid to see that we offered him more money than the Raiders did.

Are they gearing towards a post Rodgers team? Are they still all in for the Rodgers era? I'm not sure you can draft rookie WRs and expect them to perform at a Super Bowl level? Rodgers new contract sure as heck dosen't indicate a move towards "post Rodgers". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have also been some great WR draft classes, including this one, so the market should theoretically be flooded over the next few years. I’m assuming we grab a mid tier vet to keep 12 happy. Us offering Adams a huge amount was probably necessary to show we were trying to keep the band together, but he had other plans.

Do the dumbest all in rebuild ever To be fair… if you listened to fs1 cowherd would of told you that it’s super easy to get WRs given that everyone wants to be on offense now. And… for the crowd that said we can’t keep running out the same crew and expect different results, well here you go. This offense needs to evolve and be more than the Davante Adams show Edited March 18, 2022 by Green19 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isherwood Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 In a vacuum, trading Adams for 2 top 100 picks and not having to pay him $150 mil is an incredibly shrewd move. In reality, Allen Lazard who hasn’t even signed his tender yet is our WR1 right now lmao I know that won’t be the case in a couple weeks, but it’s very funny right now.

Old Guy Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 21 minutes ago, Leader said: Lance Zierlein - The Texans got a 2nd rounder for Deandre Hopkins when he was the best WR in football and was headed for a new contract (and they had to take on David Johnson's bad contract). GB got 1st and 2nd round picks for the best WR in football and didn't have to take on a bad contract. And that is why one organization is always bottom feeders and the other is not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, it's a telling point that highlights the degree to which we didnt address WR depth - or - we sucked at trying. With the values rising so steeply....we cant let that happen again. Next time when WR1 is set for a colossal payday....we need to have a viable WR2 as an alternative. So we can apply the next man up theory - rather than being held hostage to a huge contract. In the interim - before that pay or not day....we'll have move talent running around on the field. Win. Win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
