The Packers have always had an aversion to free agency. There have been some free agent splashes like Reggie White, Charles Woodson, Ahman Green, Julius Peopers etc. but for the most part they've always just relied on the draft. It's a fine approach but they need guys that can properly evaluate the defensive side of the ball. You can't be giving up 44 points and expect to win in the playoffs I don't care how good your quarterback is. They got complacent in Favres later years too. Oh well, I just hope they address it before they squander ARs whole career

They are trying to avoid becomming the saints. The saints have gone out and blown way too much money of defenders in free agency and has burned them time after time. They have a top 3 qb and havnt made the playoffs the past few seasons. The packers draft and develop formula has gott them to the playoffs the last 7 seasons and just got them to an nfc championship.
