I was just thinking about this the other day. Moreso than McCarthy becoming stale, I think the braintrust in their front office has been depleting and falling further and further behind the curve. Similarly to what's been happening in Indy.

I think Ted Thompson is too stubborn in his refusal to be active in free agency and instead relying exclusively on the draft.

I understand the whole "build through the draft" mantra but it seems like Green Bay takes that to an extreme level.

When Green Bay won a Super Bowl a few years ago, one of their key players on defense... Charles Woodson, was a free agent acquisition.

Yep, we should all be glad that Dorsey isnt so rigid in his interpretation of the Thompson way

Draft only is a great guiding principle, but sometimes you gotta jump out there and grab players that you believe can make a difference
