    We would be wasting money and talent to put Suh in a 3-4.

    I figured this would happen.

    Still have doubts on Suh. Why pay the dude $100+ mil when we could draft LW (who will eventually have a Suh type impact) for a fraction of the price.

    Would rather spend that $100mil on like McCourty, Bulaga, and Dan Williams combined.

    I dont think we're getting Bulaga either, you might as well cross that one off as well.

    If Suh isn't asked to play NT and just eat up blockers, I think he would be just as effective in a 3-4 as a 4-3. He would also give us something that we desperately need, relevance, a face of the franchise and would pump some excitement into this fan base.

    Can you imagine if we signed Suh and drafted Shelton? Our line would be Casey, Shelton, Suh. That's crazy scary for opposing teams.

    We have the cap space to sign him and Tommy has given the go ahead to spend what we need. I think we need one big name to help energize this dying fan base.

    Well for one Mike McCarthy specifically said he definitely wants to re-sign Bulaga. Then another report came from Rodgers saying that better be Green bays's No.1 priority this offseason.

    Sounds to me like that deals as good as done.

    Suh, Casey, and draft Leonard Williams.........That would be a beast of a front 3!

    You're probably right. Packers opened up some cap space by letting AJ Hawk & Brad Jones go. But, they still have some key FAs like Randall Cobb, Tramon Williams, and BJ Raji. If the Packers don't sign him before open free agency, they may lose him to the highest bidder. Bulaga may become the highest paid RT in the NFL if that happens.

    You don't pay a player $100 million and then ask him to switch positions.

    This is just basic, basic stuff.
