"The Great Free Agency Debate Rages"
And, the fans are asking questions! And good old Vic Ketchman gets a little testy!
The fans are sitting by and watching the 49er's & Seahawks make many moves! And in their own division the Bears and Vikings are making moves!(Vikings sign Jennings, shades of Farve all over again!)
The Ravens lose 7 defensive starters! Broncos pick up another weapon in Welker!
And the Packers stay pat! Another website I found does a nice job looking at salaries, free agents, and cap room. Check out - Green Bay 2013 Cap Hits
Now, only time will tell - no move by Packers on free agents, draft coming in April. So far, the last few years the Packers have had some great seasons - let's review:
2012 Record 11-5 Playoffs Second Round Loss
2011 Record 15-1 Playoffs Loss First Round
2010 Record 10-6 Super Bowl Winner
2009 Record 11-5 Playoffs Loss First Round
