    Thanks for your contribution to the discussion. I feel the need to distinguish with capital letters since some can't accept the difference between the significance in signing Letroy Guion and signing Aqib Talib.

    Are you saying you get more CAPS the more penalties you commit?

    Talib has his issues and yes he makes an impact, even if 5% is negative. Guion is just a guy in the NFL. Barely noticeable.

    and some can't accept the similarity between signing Talib because they lost Rodgers-Cromartie by Denver, and Green Bay simply resigning Shields.

    When you have to sign a high value FA because you lost a high value FA, is it really any different than just hanging on to your own high value FA instead? They did not add Talib to their talent pool, they replaced Rodgers-Cromartie with Talib. Maybe an improvement, maybe not, maybe a draw, but from a roster building concept it varies very little from GB have managed to keep Shields.

    Signing your own players isn't as sexy and exciting as signing other teams' FAs.

    Especially when those players are the ilk of Brad Jones & AJ Hawk.
