It's part of doing business in the NFL, ... (The) salary cap is just a small part of the NFL. We try to base most or all of our decisions on football and who can just fit the bill and we just felt like some of these young guys at defensive tackle played well. And we made a decision based on that. |

It's probably the deepest year for the position in 20 years. You don't have many who will go in the top 10, but you have a whole bunch who will go [from] 20 to 30. |
Linebackers can have an impact on teams and you can name four or five in the league that are clearly players that opposing teams have to watch out for. Defensive linemen normally get a little bit more publicity but I think if you have a chance to draft a good, solid, core-type guy, you better take him. |
Most of the mistakes have already been made. I think there was a lot of money chasing some marginal players at times. So I think we did a nice job so far. |
My job is to find the guy that is a good fit for our community, our franchise and our players. |
My talk with him (Sherman) was very brief. I will begin the process of interviewing potential head coaches this week. I do think that in the long run this is what's best for the Green Bay Packers. |
No, it never has been (a deadline). It's just another date in the spring. |
No. 1, often times the grass is not greener. And secondly, I think your existing players feel like they've been slighted because you didn't take care of them when you took care of someone else. But I do think there will be opportunities to add players to our team that can come in and play a role and help our team get better. |
No. We don't look at it like that, |
Obviously there are times when the organization will have to know. |
Obviously, you're always wishing you could go out and sign a Reggie White, but those players don't make it to free agency anymore, ... So you kind of do what you can and outside of that you work hard and get everybody on the same page with the defensive coordinator. And hope it all works. |
On that drive they had three third-down conversions. We've been getting (teams) off the field. |
Paris did a nice job for us and I'm glad he got that. |
Rather than just putting another guy on the team, we're trying to make sure whoever we add will add something. We'll eventually find somebody. It may not be at (wide receiver). |
