Yeah. This is irrelevant to Haley and Pioli.
And there was nothing blunderous about passing on Rodgers, at that time.
In fact, The Packers were widely criticized for that pick.
The way it has worked out is, again, the extreme exception, not the norm.
They are currently ranked 25th in YPG (23rd in YPA), They ranked 24th in 2010 (25th in YPA), and were 14th (YPG and YPA) in 2009.
I would say they are a passing team, who is not good at running the ball. Which brings us right back to The irrelevance of a RB to that team.
Like I said before, The Chiefs losing Jamaal Charles is a much bigger impact than The Packers losing Ryan Grant.
This offense was powered by Charles' unique abilities, as The Packers' offense is powered by Aaron Rodgers' unique abilities.
Should we be so dependant upon a RB? No. RB is an injury-prone position, with a short average career length.
But that is what happens when you have such a unique talent. His absence leaves a hole that is extremely difficult to fill.
