MCCARTHY WANTS MORE TALENT FROM THE NEXT PACKERS GM......JS

[pbmax]

TTs heaven reliance on draft and develop also adds to this. We had to keep guys on the roster who shouldnt have been there because we had no other options.

8-10 picks for year, you have to keep 52+ps, means the average lifespan of a TT pick was 5-6 years

If Tt had used free agency more, a lot of those guys would have been out of the nfl sooner imo

The hit rate on free agents is no more than the draft. We are talking about a couple of bodies each year. And the older the team, the less FA you can sign.

If you take my little example of a 5 to 6 year period. Say you sign a couple more free agent backups every year. That means 10-12 less draft picks on your team

If these free agents are better then those draft picks

And if that’s is the case, then you would have less TT draft picks on the team. IMO all tts draft picks are not staying in the league (on our team) based on talent, but more because of how our team is built

Drafting is certainly how you build a roster, but drafting year after year at the end of every round takes a toll on the talent of the roster. If a drafting only strategies is the way your team builds its roster than you better hope you have a creative GM that figures out ways to add picks

One pricey FA a year would sort out the draft handicap though. That doesn't seem to be what anyone wants though.

JSO and lots of posters wanted vet depth in the secondary to prevent Dom from having to start safeties at CB or rookie CBs. This year, they would have needed 2 or 3 vet CBs to ride it out.
