Default Ted Thompson Won't Spend Millions On Mediocrity

Source: Mike Vandermause, Packers News [ Full Article ]

The knock against Ted Thompson is the Green Bay Packers' general manager is sitting on a $21 million pile of cash and barely has moved during the first two weeks of NFL free agency. While some teams have been throwing money around like drunken sailors, Thompson has taken a more conservative approach. "It doesn't make sense to do something just so you can show people that you've done something, when in fact come next September or October you realize this did really not help us," said Thompson, who spent most of this past week on a scouting trip.

It's nice that he doesn't spend alot money in the FA to save some space under the cap, but spending little money for less than medicore players is a waste too. I hope he didn't sign another overhyped player like Woodson.

There still is that Randy Moss rumor....although even though it's a hot rumor I think it would be a bad move. Let's face it...the Packers are not competing for a title any time soon and bringing in a guy like Moss instead of rebuilding is a step back in the long run.
