Yeah but look at Green Bay's qb.

@"mblack" said:That’s a pretty uncharitable reading of the situation but there might be some truth to it. The big risks he’s taken have more been with trades instead of big draft day swings (Bradford, Ngakoue, Harvin, Diggs). Those results haven’t been terrible either. He’s a good GM but yeah I really wish we had an elite QB too. Someday...@"comet52" said:He is scared of being fired so he takes the "easier" route. No big risks and drafting by volume.

So Rick aggressively traded up in the 2ND ROUND to draft a RB who is already one of our best ever and could potentially become a HOFer and Rick is getting slammed for this draft! LOL!!
In addition, Gedeon was a productive player for a 4th rounder who filled his role and Odenigbo was an outstanding find in the 7th round and we also signed Eric Wilson as a UDFA that year.
