All are second tier, depth guys. No impact players. Combined you wouldn't have one impact player.
oh, I'd say Bennett was not considered a 2nd tier guy. Kendricks has the same skill set as Cook. Evans is a multi time prowbowler who looks to have a bit left in the tank and is having a fine year. Underrated if y ou ask me.
But what impact players should we have gotten? Has Graham been an impact player for Seattle when they gave away their best offensive lineman to get him? what's been the weakness of that team since before they did that? (hint: it's from the same group they moved their best player from) Is Gilmore an impact player for the Pats for his 40 Million guaranteed and 65 million dollar contract? Things happen.
Every year it's the same though, if a guy isn't a super star it's a reason to complain about the Packers organization. They never sign FA's until they do. and when they did, people were excited about the individuals they signed, but since things haven't gone like they thought, now those FA's aren't good enough. Never mind that all the ones they wanted earlier haven't panned out for their respective teams either, but they'll scan the list till they find one that "would have " helped us had Ted only loosened his purse strings a little and actually tried to make us better. Like they aren't always trying to make us better.
This notion that "This orginisation will NEVER spend money to improve." is false. Picked a bad year to make that proclamation. all these teams aren't better. I've actually watched more games this year than usual and so many teams are giving up yards in bunches. QB's that aren't that good. Injuries to key players that take them from very good to very bad in a play. Teams are so close that it is the playmakers that make a difference, but those players aren't plentiful. and it's not as easy as saying, see, he's good, let's sign him.
