Memo To Ted Thompson

[The Shadow]

Dear Ted : It is time to make some changes.

[Tony Oday]

Coaches need to be culled. Offensive line needs vet talent.

[woodbuck27]

Ted a lot of changes are needed ...as you would say:


" Moving forward... I felt it was necessary to burn down some of the sheds on the property and build anew." Ted Thompson

Maybe you could be less eloquent!? Ted !?

" Moving forward we're very pleased with this team.

We feel we have the finest coaching staff in the NFL as comparable to any other team franchise. We'll reassess the teams roster as we approach Free Agency; see where we might fill holes, as any opportunity arises. We're excited about the draft and new life blood for the team. "




" Hey ... have you seen Ted Thompson lately? I ain't seen em'. "

free agent spending spree!

Aaron Rodgers and CM III will be $chiping$ in for that?

see i don't buy that bullshit for a second, they kept saying in the post game show that we were up against the cap after giving a-rod and clay big deals

i say horse shit. we're carrying 8-9 million in free cap space again this year just like we have the last few years, we just keep rolling it over and over and over again, never using it.

finley is not coming back next year, theres about 8 million saved
raji will not be back, theres another 6-7 million off the books
tramon should be gone, wheres another 9 million off the books

we should have plenty of room to add a real safety and a TE, and maybe a 3-4 MLB. in which case we can just give them either jones or hawks money

free agency is not something that we are unable to use, its something we choose not to use, then make excuses as to why we don't use it

[King Friday]

We have plenty of money...we never overspend in free agency because we never get into free agency.

[red]

the way i see it, we are 17 or 18 million under the cap for next year, that doesn't include any money we roll over from this year. that is letting all our free agents walk

tramon has a cap number of 9.5 million, he can go

hawk has a cap number of 6.5, he might go
jones has a cap number of 4 million, if hawk doesn't go then jones should

we're looking at, at least, 30 million in free cap space

there are guys like sam shields and james jones that it would be nice if we kept. still i see us with over 20 million in free space

use it, buy us the fucking safety we desperately need

I don't disagree with you. The team needs some more experienced and capable players on our roster. Drafting and developing is a big part of it but not the whole answer.

red.. Your sharp on the numbers that you quote here.

Can you sometime work up a realistic model of this projected CAP space $ available to TT for the 2014 FA period. He should know right now who goes and who stays at what exact to approximate cost.

Coaches need to be culled. Offensive line needs vet talent.

Er, Ted doesn't hire coaches outside of McCarthy.

Offensive line needs to get healthy. That group is a MASH unit.

Not during the season. But afterward? Mike has fired assistants before that weren't cutting it.

Where are we gonna find this safety? This incoming class isn't much better than last year and teams with good safeties don't trade them away or let them walk.
