and the point is that teams with expensive QB's don't shy away from bringing in good skill position talent, Lupe just showed what the last 3 SB winners did, each brought in a skill position player to further there chances of winning.
people that defend what went o n here between drafting Adams and Watson do so to defend that insanity, there isn't a sports person alive that would
and those where the first 3 or 4 teams I even looked into, this talk that teams can't afford skill position talent with a expensive QB is not exactly true, they can except all there resources go elsewhere, was our defense worth it, hell no,
Just because it didn't work doesn't mean there wasn't effort which is what you are pushing. Tonyan was slated to be the next high paid guy until his injury in 2021.
There is always lots to the story.

There is some truth to it, however. In the first year of the salary cap, 1994, Steve Young took up 13.1% of the cap. That percentage was never eclipsed by a single player winning the Super Bowl until Mahomes did it in February.

Jeudy is a bust, Tim Patrick lol give me a break. That "vaunted" WR group put up less than 20 points on us. Those WRs also predated the addition of Wilson at QB, they built up the supporting cast on O because they didn't have an elite QB that patently makes roster-building difficult.
Allen and Prescott at 9 and 11 are **considerably** less expensive than Rodgers was. Bills O has been so poor they fired the O-Coord.

well obviously paying one player a lot leaves less for others, I don't think anyone is arguing that, times have changed now though since UFA, teams do basically what we did, build for a 2 to 4 year window, kick contracts forward and bring in as much talent for that run as you are able to, in my and some others opinions we didn't complete that all in task, in fact where near avoided that position all together, unless ya count Amari Rodgers and the stooges that ended up like a bandaid on open heart surgeryPckfn23 wrote: ↑21 Nov 2023 14:09There is some truth to it, however.

now your just splitting hairs, neither where that much cheaper, still what did we do, almost nothing, and did almost nothing for 8 years.
we had arguably the best passing QB in the league, and gave him Amari, never saw a punt he couldn't screw up, and 3 mid rounders that really never became better then #3 field stretchers.to go with Adams, I doubt I know of a GM besides ours that would have done that to him.
to think because a QB makes more money that he should be expected to carry the team is such insane thinking, just more defense for a inept GM

Cancelled by the forum elites.
Tampa and LA built their teams in reverse of the QBs. Tampa built up a strong supporting cast on O because they had no expensive QB on the roster and kept getting high draft picks because of how bad they were, then they got an elite QB to join them after the fact.
LA had Goff on a rookie deal, built up the O while he was cheap, then traded for a QB upgrade. Their situations were nothing like GB.
And how long did those high-powered offenses last? Tampa was mediocre last year, and now they are a shell of the SB team. Rams completely fell apart the next year and are in an even bigger rebuild than this team.
As for KC...
Okay, so you started out by agreeing with someone that Mahomes is in the same boat as Rodgers has been for the past few years, yet have been doing nothing but breathlessly defending KC's roster-building strategy that led to the outcome that you call "insanity."people that defend what went o n here between drafting Adams and Watson do so to defend that insanity,
Sounds like you will have to join us the insane asylum.

KC is getting into the meat of it now.

Maybe if we werent paying bigger deals to bad players or unpremium positions like Dean Lowry, Kevin King, Billy Turder, Mercedes Lewis, Jimmy Graham, etc... On top of that we misused our draft resources by getting players who gave us absolutely no value riding the bench during years they should have been highly impactful. Everyone is so quick to jump all over Rodgers stealing money he earned and no one wants to mention the absurdity of some of those deals.
Paying Aaron Jones while drafting AJ Dillon in the 2nd round to play 3rd string year one and 2nd string his entire rookie deal. Jordan Love riding the bench almost his entire rookie deal. Rashan Gary getting minimal impact during his first two years. You get a little rookie impact out of these guys at positions of value and move on from some of those bad contracts I mentioned earlier and you arent in such a cap crunch.

But just off the top of my head...
2017 We had Adams, Nelson and Cobb still playing good ball
2018 Still Adams, drafted ESB and MVS (not great picks mind you) but also spent our 1 on Jaire, signed Jimmy Graham.
2019 Spent a ridiculous amount on the Smith bros, Billy Turner and Amos to try to make up for the abyssmal 2015 draft having noone that needed to get a second contract.
Most of those teams were built enough to win. They didn't win it all. I'm bummed about that too, but it's not like we were dancing at the minimum cap number so the owner could save some money. they have essentially spent it all, every single year going back a long time. The results just haven't always worked out.
thats more a matter of circumstances, the QB's they had didn't pan out,I'll stick to the plan Thompson had in 06, If ya have a great QB, he had Favre, you bring in WR's, Ted had to dump his G's to get under the Cap, replaced one with Colledge, and also took a receiver, and rinse and repeat every other draft using a 2nd on a receiver.
Gutekunst just did the same for his QB these last 2 drafts, can't win if ya can't score points, OL doing musical chairs both seasons, he drafts ball catchers, so he isn't exactly following your plan
![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
not saying Brady or Stafford weren't the topping off of two already talented teams, just that I don't think that was necessarily intentional, obviously thats a perfect case scenario , and in todays era of UFA by the time ya build up the supporting cast, the studs are walking out the door, jmo, I think it's better the way Ted and Gute have done it.

Why are you defending KC for wasting Mahomes's prime? Who cares what they tried to do at WR if they, as you agreed, have ended up putting Mahomes in the same position as we did Rodgers, especially if you don't accept the cap as an excuse?
Why do you defend trading Hill away without having a replacement on the roster?

2017
Adams missed 2 games 885
Cobb had 653
Nelson had 482, that was his last season
now theres a bunch of receivers with less, those are the top 3
2018 was much better, still ended up costing McCarthy his job,
Adams break out season 1386
Grayham 636
MVS, nice rookie season, Rodgers loved that speed 581
Cobb with 383
again there are more with shorter yardage.
just look at these figures from another teams top 3 that also has a very expensive QB from several years back, I chose this team, admittedly because of brother Labrev idea that KC lacked receivers, again my opinion only but I always feel two receivers capable of beating single coverage consistently is better then just a great player like Adams, so I chose KC
2020
Kelce 1416
T, Hill 1276
Hardman 560
Kelce and Hill are a nightmare
2021
T. Hill 1239
Kelce 1125
Hardman 695
2022
Kelce 1338
ju ju Shuster 933
MVS 687
not saying ya need Kelce and a Hill, the point is having two K type receivers is better then just one, lots better.
Gute just brought in a bunch of pretty good candidates, I could see any number of 4 capable to do it.

Is this what you’ve been arguing all this time? Is this the point of all this back-and-forth??
Who on this planet wouldn’t want two 1k receivers? Like, no &%$@. It’s easier said than done, though. Historically, I bet it’s only been done a handful of times. Regardless, though, who in their right mind wouldn’t want this? Who are you arguing against on this point?

I haven't been paying attention to who's saying what, but over the past 2 years i've seen plenty say how Mahomes gets it done and Rodgers can't anymore argued in a lot of places in person and on the net.
anyway, Rodgers is past prime, injured and not on our team anymore. I don't think he was nearly as bad as people perceived last year, but alas, we'll never know any more than we do now.
But put Rodgers on KC last year or year before, they'd likely be contenders for a super bowl. Would they win? anyone's guess, odds are against it, because, well they're against everyone. Put Mahomes on GB last year are they super bowl contenders? I'd still say no.
Both are some of the best QB's to ever play the game at very different stages of their careers.

In my opinion very few QBs in the history of the league can say they played with worse talent than what Rodgers had last year.
