My ILBs are better.

That's an interesting debate. Immediately probably. Depends on how good Alonso and Mosley become as a young tandem. Particularly Alonso's durability.

[rmw10]

These 2 might still be available...

 

[-Truth-]

Cortez Allen, Troy Polamalu, Quanterus Smith, Zac Dysert, David Bruton, Lamin Barrow and Kayvon Webster are on the trade block. Looking for picks or players on the OL, TE, DB and DL. I'm willing to add players and picks as needed. PM me if interested.

I wouldn't call giving away 3 players and a pick a steal

[NFLfan123]

I've improved the run defense and cut down on some salaries. Even with losing Mike Daniels, and my MLBs(which I can retain those two, or two players of similar value for cheap), I've shored up the run defense. 

 

 

How does Marshall not help me? He gives Rodgers a very physical WR to compliment Cobb who in the slot is one of the best WRs in the NFL with open space, and Nelson, who was an all pro. In a piss poor offense, Marshall was still set to go over 1000 yards before his injury. And now he's arguably the number three option on the team. Can a number three corner in the NFL cover Marshall one on one? Screw that, can a #3 corner cover Nelson, or Cobb? .And I think he's got maybe 2-3  good seasons leftover. 

 

Adams gave me a plethora of draft picks, well two haha. Something I needed after shoring up the dline a little by adding a good NT and Ngata. And I love my WRs.. 

Nick Roach missed every single game last season after suffering a concussion in week 2 or 3 of the Pre Season

I'd be shocked if he ever plays a snap again

Whenever  a concussion forces you to miss that much time that's a bad sign

 

EDIT: nvm lol

apparently specialists in London say he'll be fine going forward

3 scrubs and a 5th... for one of the best young LBs in the game

Who was he referring to as his LBs?

His depth chart has roach as starter

I guess Bradford and Barrington. Barrington was admittedly good last year. He could definitely build on that.

Really? Maybe as a #2?

[GrimCoconut]

I actually like the Packers front seven. It's good. It's not great but it's good and with their secondary, I think it's good enough to win a championship. There are clearly more moves to be made, but this is a very good defense.

My one complaint is the positions. It might be a mistake, but I'd swap Jones and Ngata. Jones is a better pass rusher at this point than Ngata, imo, so putting him at RDE going against the left side of the OL is the favorable matchup. I think Ngata should go up against the right side. That's probably my biggest gripe. I also don't like the depth of group much, but then again I'm not in love with my DL depth either, which has four guys with injury histories but they're pretty good overall. I like the rotation of my group.

Like the real Packers, your LB are okay. I think they're upgraded through the process of addition by subtraction in removing Jones, personally. He was garbage. You definitely have a need at ILB, though. I wouldn't trust Barrington and Bradford, although I suspect you won't either. Fortunately, I think this ILB class is quite good so you should be fine.

I agree with what you say here. This shoukd be the best Packers run defense we've seen in a long time. Still lots of opportunity to upgrade the linebackers. I like the defensive moves.

So, I think I've decided that I'm willing to move Pick 15 overall for a top notch WR.

[ravefan52]

One of the best young defenders in the league for some backups and a late mid-round pick... Interesting strategy I guess

MLB is a need. One I'll address in the draft probably. I was going to ask you about Daryl Smith but you traded him..
