The Green Bay Packers couldn't really re-sign Micah Hyde even though a lot of people think they should have. Well, Ted Thompson is real sorry about that.

No he's not. Ted may be sorry that he couldn't keep Hyde at a bargain basement price but other than that he won't lose sleep over the way it played out.

The fire Ted train would be going full steam ahead right now had Ted gave Hyde that contract. Waaaay overpaid. 30 mill for a guy who specialized in letting guys get open whether he was playing lb, CB or safety. Good riddance. Let's stop talking about this guy

Morgan Burnett is more valuable to us than Hyde. It was a necessary move for a great role player, but a role player nonetheless.

Business is business. I am certain that Micah knows that and holds no grudge. A team can only afford to "pay" about 13 players (I read that somewhere). Hard to justify one of them being a backup.

You said Burnett will be gone next year and I actually wouldn't be surprised. He'll be 29 and have already signed one post-rookie contract deal with the Packers.

If he's let go, I wonder if Damarious Randall is moved to Safety? I think he was projected as Safety coming out of college.

Ultimately, yes, Morgan Burnett > Micah Hyde and not sure it's even really that close.

Randall was projected to saftey because he played Safety in college because of the unique system they ran. That college system wanted your best coverage guy at Safety... in that system the Safety was asked to cover more than the CBs.. and no that system would not work long in the NFL. It was basically 6 man blitz every play.

They possibly could play Randall at FS, but he doesn't have the build to hold up at SS. And Dom likes to interchange the two so much I can't see them moving him. I would like to see Ted grab a 220lb SS, that would give the team an option instead of having to pay Burnett because we don't have a replacement.

Man....I miss the "old days", when players played for the love of the game, and not just for the biggest paycheck. There is NO "loyalty" in today's NFL.
Not with the players, OR the teams.

beast (20-Apr) : I'm not sure they have different playbooks for different OL positions, and Dillard run blocking is supposedly worse than his pass blocking..

dfosterf (19-Apr) : The only problem with that is he isn't a guard either.

dfosterf (19-Apr) : Put him at right guard. That is where he will be coached. That is where he will compete. He is not even allowed to look at the LT playbook.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Kidding aside, I hope the best for him.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Went to a Titans board. One comment there. Not very long. I quote: "LOL" They don't sound overly upset about our aquisition.
