Instead of calling this a "triangle of authority" can we call MM, Murphy, and Gutekunst a "Thrupple"?

I wonder, with the resurrection of the "Ted never signed (enough) free agents" mantra if Gutty will feel pressured to sign some big name free agent, whether it makes sense financially or not."The Devine era is actually worse than you remember if you go back and look at it."

The "TT never signs free agents" idea is all that really characterized Ted for the JS comments fanbase but I'm more interested in how Gutty will handle guys like Lang. Ted rarely ever kept a guy too long. Canary in the coal mine is Burnett this year. He seems like a guy TT would be perfectly happy to walk away from.70% of the Earth is covered by water. The rest is covered by Al Harris.

It's not that Ted never signed free agents - just look at the parade of mediocrity last season. He only signed retreads, rejects, etc. - second or third tier players that virtually nobody else wanted. I HOPE Gutekunst feels pressured to go after one or more big time free agents this season and future seasons. Jimmy Graham would be a great start; The top cover Corner available would be good to get also. With the always increasing cap, the money should be available, and you can always structure contracts to make them work under the cap.
We got rid of Ted - FINALLY. Hopefully we also got rid of his way of doing things.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

All free agents are retreads and all carry hefty price tags in comparison to their production. Just because someone signs someone in the stupid money segment of the offseason is no guarantee of better success.Originally posted by texaspackerbacker View PostIt's not that Ted never signed free agents - just look at the parade of mediocrity last season.

If Graham gets to the market, he's a must-sign. Offer him something that he would be idiotic to refuse.
The part in bold, I've always said that any accounting major could cook/manage the cap. In the Packers' case, they don't even need an accountant. The Packers have a strength and conditioning coach managing their cap!
Belichickism is the way to do things when you have an elite QB on your roster. If the German Shepard (Gutekunst) continues on with that draft and develop shit, aka, Polar Bearism, off with his head, too!
