"I feel so good. I'm so excited about it. I think it's great that the group up there is willing to think outside the box. I have a lot of faith in what they're assembling."
"The salary cap was designed to actually disrupt the 49ers - and the Washington Redskins - but primarily us. They devised the rules with, 'How do we change this so the 49ers can't do it.' Which, in a way, was a compliment. But what we did was salvage our veteran team and then load up, because we couldn't tolerate losing to Dallas three times in a row. We knew if we got to the Super Bowl we'd win. It was inexcusable and insufferable."
Green Bay acquired edge rusher Micah Parsons from the Dallas Cowboys in exchange for first-round picks in 2026 and 2027 and three-time Pro Bowler Kenny Clark. Carmen Policy expressed enthusiasm for the Packers' aggressive move and compared it to the San Francisco 49ers' 1994 buy-now-pay-later strategy of front-loading guaranteed money to exploit an early salary-cap loophole. Policy recalled signing Ken Norton Jr. after consecutive losses to Dallas and said the 49ers salvaged a veteran roster to win a Super Bowl. Carmen Policy also expressed pride in son Ed Policy, who rose from Arena League executive to Packers president.
