You didn't say a single word about it in 12 pages. I said this: clearly i was skeptical of extending bakhtiari after we took spriggs thinking that was the cost-effective way going foward. But the staff got a few months to noodle that over and went w/ Bakh which is a prudent move for what might be the rest of Rodgers' prime. The ideal situation was having Bakh come in much improved and earning an extension IMO. Seems to be what happened and that is good news for this team. and called you a troll haha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They like them so long as they're either underpaid or on a reasonable deal. Fixed it for you. Are we wrong? Elliot Wolf literally said the same thing about the Packers organizational philosophy. Think it was after they passed on Reggie Ragland or Myles Jack or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packfanfb Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 15 minutes ago, CWood21 said: Fumbles are a ridiculously unrelaible turnover stat. And how many missed tackles are you willing to risk for a few more fumbles? I'd rather have an ILB who is assignment-sure, and doesn't have a ton of missed tackles over one who creates a couple more forced fumbles. I mean I think fumble recoveries are unreliable because you might just be the guy who gets the lucky bounce. Forced fumbles to me shows the ability to create potential turnovers. Turnovers change games. Turnovers win games. I wouldn't necessarily correlate causing fumbles with being less assignment sure or missing tackles. He doesn't have to be Peanut Tillman out there throwing punches at the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many people were ready to throw chairs at their TV because the Packers passed on Eric Kendricks? Pretty sure most wanted Stephone Anthony there as well. Pretty sure there was a large faction that wanted Jaylon Smith and Reggie Ragland over Kenny Clark. It's clear there is a philosophical reasoning for not addressing the ILB position more heavily. We're not going to carry All Pros there because we're not investing premium picks into that position. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why they're ridiculously unrealible. The ball can literally bounce in a million different ways. And you usually are risking a missed tackle by going for a forced fumble. How many missed tackles are you willing to endure in order to get another forced fumble or two? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, we’re already missing the tackles 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that Spriggs was going to be a lot better than he was. I thought that letting Bakhtiari walk as a FA was a sound financial move because he wasn't as good as he is now, then; and we had the ready replacement. Bakhtiari improved, and Spriggs fell flat. Bakhtiari is one of my favorites, and is well worth the money. I was wrong. I might have been down on Adams in game day threads with so many drops, I don't recall. Probably was, the game day thread is for instant reactions and jokes and having a good time. Analyze the game afterward, enjoy watching it live. I don't believe that I wanted to cut him at any point. I don't believe I have said anything negative about MVS ever. Maybe I thought drafting 3 WRs that year was overkill. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the same fans that Outpost actually has a legit gripe about. Instead he's decided to gripe about everything, including the people who don't think Blake is anything super special that we need to bring back. Those people fall in line with the actual thinking of the Packers FO. We'll sign Blake to a team friendly deal, or not at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd agree that Outpost tends to be a bit overly dramatic, but I think you're lying to yourself if you don't think there's a very vocal group that tends to have let's say questionable opinions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
