re: Why Does Ted Thompson Refuse Free Agency and Build a Defense for Rodgers?

Our problem isnt that we dont spend in free agency. I agree with what we do on that front. The problem has been talent evaluation. Our last few drafts have been focussed on defense, but the talent just hasnt panned out. Nick perry, kenny clark, datone jones, damarious randall, and haha clinton dix have been our last 5 picks. Haha clinton dix is really the only one who has flourished. Nick perry is finally having a good year this year, but was relatively quiet his first several years. (Note that the one plyer from that list that has been good was the one sec player. Need to stop drafting pac 12 pussies).
