    It has to be the Green Bay Packers. We are not stupid enough to waste all of our cap but we have done so little in FA that it's really scaring me. All we have done is.. Sign William Henderson Sign Ahman Green Sign Aaron Kampmen Sign Marquand Manuel Sign Ryan Pickett It's been pretty lackluster considering we had the 2nd most cap to spend in all of football, not to mention we still don't have a kicker and all the good ones are off the market.

    Pickett is a nice young pick up at DT will do pretty good

    He's a decent DT but he's nothing to brag about in an offseason in which you had $25 million to spend.

    The Kampen re-signing and Picket signings were pretty nice. Free agency still has a ways to go. Just let all the big spenders waste all there money and then you have your options.

    Reports from Chris Mortensen suggest players just didn't want to play for the Packers. 16 out of the 20 FA's they had come in didn't want to play in Green Bay which is proving what I have always said true. When Favre leaves the house with crumble.

    ^ Yeah, I was thinking that too. I mean who wants to go up to Green Bay and play in the cold?

    It's not even that cold in Green Bay, the cold here is so overhyped by the media. They act like every game is like the Ice Bowl and 40 below zero. The city is so small and their is NOTHING to do in Wisconsin, thats why.

    The Patriots haven't had the best off-season. Guys we didn't re-signLB Willie Mcginist (understandable)WR David GivensWR Andre DavisWR Tim DwightTE Christian FauriaK Adam Vinatieri CB Dwayne StarksOL Tom AshworthThe Pats unloaded a ton of people very casually, nobody seems to be making a huge deal about it. All the diehard fans around New England are saying they're saving up their money, I always comeback with FOR WHAT? They let all the free-agents float away, I don't know if they plan on drafting their talent, but I dunno what they will do. Our WR core is completely diminished, RB Corey Dillon may be on the way out, I think he still has one good year left in him. I still don't understand not re-signing Vinatieri, this guy is a main reason for why we won two super bowls. The difference between his contract in Indy and his contract in NE wasn't even that much. I don't get what the Pats are doing, all I can say is "In Bill we Trust"

    I would have let Vinatieri go as well. Wasting $3 million and a tag on a kicker is a joke. Trust me WTTJ, the Patriots are doing what they are doing because they are a step ahead of everyone else. They will pick up a few guys that will look like genius FA additions, not to mention this draft is deep and you guys always have your rookies ready to play.

    I would say the Patriots since they've lost Givens, Aschworth, Eric Mangini, and even Vinateri!

    None of those guys are huge losses though...they can't resign everyone...Plug in cheaper holes and find help in the draft.
