Chandler#81 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I just don’t see LB as a pressing need. Brown played great and the rookies were better than advertised. Sure, add 1 in Draft or FA, but DL, QB & WR are our biggest needs, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brown just led the league in tackles and will be overpaid by someone else though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We definitely need improvement on this team. Yall need a backup QB that can actually play and win some games when Aaron is out. This is the second season yall have had to waste because you have schmucks behind him. Seneca Wallace? Hundley? Really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brown was OK but as MLB he really is not a strong fit for what I think McDermott wants out of his defense. 4 hours ago, Ice bowl 67 said: We need a LB, DE, possibly draft a QB if Rodgers goes down again, and an extra Offensive lineman. We definitely need improvement on this team. I kind of thought you might need more than that on D (and on OL). Rodgers too often is playing "run for your life" back there. No one is better at making plays while running for his life, but you kind of need to keep him cleaner. Seems like the Pack really hasn't had a strong D since they won the Superbowl in 2010. I was thinking 2-3 LB (need to start feeding Linebacker U at a faster rate), maybe 2 DE and start looking for DT as well...are you really happy with Mike Daniels? Also need depth at DB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillsGospel Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 LB, QB and DL are the biggest needs. We need to upgrade at least 2 of our LB positions but all three need to be fixed. An athletic ILB is a must in the system ran which is why the really good teams can plow right through us. Raquan Smith ILB of Georgia is a great player but almost surely not making it to us at 21.

We need to upgrade the athletes in our front 7. That sums it up nicely. On 1/11/2018 at 3:53 PM, TheTruthHurts said: John Miller or Groy should have been starting at RG, Ducasse is our OL coaches guy. Dawkins and Glenn hopefully are our OT's. This should be a top OL when healthy. I don't know, I agree on Miller but Groy maybe our starting center next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We jusr gave E.Wood an extension. You think he’ll be cut or sitting on the bench? I really think we are too thin at too many positions to go out and create another issue, on an already struggling OL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really think we are too thin at too many positions to go out and create another issue, on an already struggling OL Groy's a Mauler and didn't have any business sitting on the bench. He's going to be a starter and Wood have slipped. What's wrong with having a quality back up like that on your team though. I know they extended him but in a flat out competition I'm anxious to see which one of them comes out on top.

folz Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 (edited) First, I'd resign these UFAs: Gaines, Kyle, Leonard Johnson, Matthews, and Humber (as depth)---I don't think any of those guys will break the bank to resign And I'd tender these RFAs: O'Leary and Logan Thomas The next big questions are what are you doing with Cordy, Tyrod, and P. Brown I'd probably keep Cordy (if healthy, as either LT or RT with Dion at the other position), move on from Brown, and move on from Tyrod (if we can get a decent QB in FA) And of course that leads us to the QB question: Best case: Get a Cousins or Smith in FA, draft a QB (w/o giving up the farm), and you have Peterman Plan B: Go get a top QB in the draft (whatever you have to give up), get a backup FA vet QB, Peterman Plan C: Draft QB high, keep Tyrod, Peterman In Free Agency, I want to get: DT (want a vet at this position), QB (Smith/Cousins type or backup vet), LB (starting caliber), a safety for depth, and possibly a RG (either here or in the draft---would prefer to draft RG as a good enough vet might cost too much) And then in the draft I go after: QB (to start and/or groom), DE (pass rusher), #2 WR (fast, but not just a speed guy), a LB (to fill whichever LB position you didn't address in FA), RG (if you don't get one in FA), RB (as a #2 with potential to be a #1 down the road), CB (making sure that either the CB or WR you draft has kick returning skills), then fill for depth That seems like a lot to ask in a draft, but maybe not this year as we have so much draft capital (1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5, 7)---unless we move up for a QB---and last draft, we were getting quality players into the 5th round.

NastyNateSoldiers Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 We need Yac attack guys . 2 more 3 down RBs sign Jerrick Mckinnon and draft Sony Michel in 2nd rd. Get me some wrs with speed and wiggle . Guys that can take a slant to the house. The future of the NFL is here and Yac attack is at the forefront of offensive play. Just look at all the playoff teams. They all imploy 3 RBs that can do it all and have Wrs that can run after the catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that train is never late. You honestly are relentless. how about we just acknowledge the dude has a real point instead of needless incessant digs at the qb. there's the fact that Benjamin has never been a yac guy and then got hurt and that Matthews looked like an undersized TE laboring down the field but even slower than regular sized ones. And that clay is really the only pass catcher on the team to ever have shown the ability run after the catch and that’s seemed to pass him by. the dude has a point. why keep beating the dead horse?
