Packers Players Think Draft-and-Develop Can Suck It

Safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix was the first one to whine about it. That is, the Green Bay Packers’ draft-and-develop personnel philosophy, which was “perfected” under Ted Thompson.

I think that’s exactly what it is,” Clinton-Dix said. “We go from our starters to basically [street] free agent players. Sometime that can hurt as we’ve seen through the years that I’ve been here, that we don’t have the guys behind us that we had. Jarrett Bush [was] here when I was a rookie. We don’t have the Micah Hydes that can step in, we don’t have the Chris Banjos or the Sean Richardons that can step in and be held accountable.
