[QUOTE="TJV, post: 598445, member: 4300"] I don’t have any question Raji played his way out of the 2-man DL in the nickel with his subpar play, so the position change doesn’t explain his drop off IMO. Playing out the last year of his rookie deal in the 2013 should have provided plenty of motivation for him, yet as a few have mentioned he again had a bad season finishing that season with 17 total tackles having started all 16 games. Did the one-year deal he signed and switch back to NT before this season re-energize him? That’s as hard for me to tell as is his lack of motivation for the 2013 season. McCarthy had this to say after he tore his biceps: [url]http://www.jsonline.com/sports/packers/packers-have-strong-options-to-replace-injured-bj-raji-b99336322z1-272519441.html[/url] With Guion’s situation up in the air along with Thompson’s less than stellar record drafting DL, I would really like to see another stout DL acquired in free agency. Maybe Raji comes back motivated in great shape, but I think they would be very foolish to assume that considering his history. As for Thornton, McGinn wrote this after the third preseason game: The story goes on to say after the first week of practice McCarthy used the term, “quick twitch” to describe Thornton as Thompson did after the draft.

Of course I’m not writing off a player going into his second TC, but no such position change is in store for Thornton so he’s going to have to wake the hell up and give 100% effort. [/QUOTE]
