With the upward trends in draft capital "spending" on WRs and the latest WR extension guarantees and AAV values, at what point might you consider elevating WR to a Tier 1 position in your team building framework? Or is it just recency bias on my part and spending hasn't changed relative to other positions with a rising cap? I guess I'd just like to hear you talk through what it would take for position groups to move between tiers and which position groups are trending in different directions.
What incentive do the Packers have to get a deal done with Love prior to this season? The consensus seems to be that Love would get a $50M+ AAV contract if done sometime this Spring/Summer. Given the number is already this high, wouldn't it make more sense for the Packers to wait until during/after the season in case Love struggles? Is the team worried about a potential holdout from Love?
With all of the changes in the sports media landscape, do you have any insights based on your own experience? Most recently, NFL Network seems to be pursuing a partnership or merger with ESPN and a lot of their personnel is slowly being let go.
