    Yes that would be fair.

    We need more at TE and this would be a short term and logical move for TT. The thing is any player that TT does pursue must want to be a Packer. That translates to whether or not we look like true Super Bowl contenders.

    That is a hand in hand thing. We're learning that the TT era end isn't far off unless he wobbles. I don't see that in TT. It's time for TT to seal his legacy with a more ALL IN approach.

    That approach will no doubt line up with MM's and the Aaron Rodgers led Packer Roster thinking as well.

    It would sure make me happy as a wee part of Packer Nation to see TT become suddenly more assertive. Not winning the Super Bowl next se4ason and not going to a more assertive approach is just wrong and TT.

    Ted Thompson needs to show some muscle between the ears. He needs to show Pavker Nation he has the real balls it takes to win again ! He needs to see that we're actually falling behind last season's NFCN winning team the Minnesota Vikings. That fact is just unacceptable and TT has to do all he must to reverse that. We leave the 2015 season behind aware that as of last season no NFCN team fears the Packers anymore.

    TT needs to change that NOW !

    Ted Thompson cannot get there by just drafting and developing and watching the talent he develops hold the Packers to a ransom or failing there ...leaving to bolster another NFL team. In also realize he wants to leaver the Green Bay Packers healthy CAP wise. There's a difficult juggling act there.

      My gut says he signs a 3-4 year deal at 4MIL a year.

      However

      Maybe he doesn't get any biters during TT's Annual Hibernation (first 30 days free agency is open) and TT swoops in for a 1-2 year deal at the above. Worth a shot
      We need to see TT active soon into FA. It might not be at the TE position based in some plan to give us the upgrade there we're as Packer fans seeing. TT may believe he'll draft that upgrade. That unless he drafts a TE early is wishful dreaming if that's the case or part of his Master plan and the 2016 sason

      Packer Nation deserves to see a change in Ted Thompson. The same Ole same ole is too ....way over too tired. I'm sick of his stumbling out of the gate ways in terms of Free Agency and I hope that Packer Nation is thinking right there as well.

        I think the Packers have a TE signed within 3 days of the start of free agency.

              Daugherty has an article about the TE free agent group, with comments from "...a scout for an NFL team who has studied this year’s potential tight ends class."

              http://www.greenbaypressgazette.com/...rket/81212004/

              Here is his summary about Cook:


              Jared Cook (6-5, 254), Rams: Turns 29 in April and was cut by the Rams as part of a salary-cap purge two weeks ago that wiped his $7 million base salary off their books. Had only 39 receptions (12.3-yard average) with no touchdowns last season for a team that had more than its share of quarterback issues. Pro Football Focus had him for the most drops (10) of all tight ends in the league.

              Cook was cut, so he’s available for signing now and carries the advantage of not counting against his new team in the compensatory draft pick formula. The former third-round pick ran the 40 in 4.50 seconds at the combine in ’09, but for all that speed he never caught more than 52 passes or five touchdowns in a season. The question is whether the Rams saw him as a fast-declining player..

              “I haven’t seen a whole lot of production,” the scout said.

                He is healthy, if you can trust summations with no quotes.



                Cook is coming off foot surgery, but is fully healthy again and looking forward to the opportunity with Green Bay.

                The born-and-raised Southerner laughed knowingly when asked about the prospect of playing eight games at Lambeau Field this year.

                “It’s going to be different,” Cook said with a grin. “I heard I’ll be good until I reach November, then it’s going to get a little chilly up there. Every time I get in a conversation with someone, that’s the first thing that comes up.

                “I’m looking forward to what that windchill feels like. I’m excited though.”
                Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

                            Doctors take things too far. Lung contusion. I've never fucking heard of that. He got the god damned wind knocked out of him. Get up, grasp for that next life sustaining breath until it finally comes and get back out there.

                            On a completely different note. He looks fast and strong and sure handed. It takes everyone a year or two in this offense. I'd like to see him back. I think he could be a legit threat in year two.
