First time I can recall I agree with this joker. I don't think Eliot Wolf is going to go anywhere, unless Ted Thompson says he has another decade in him. Thompson doesn't and knows he's on his last contract per his decision. (last part is my speculation)

The Seattle Seahawks agreed to a contract extension on Sunday with general manager John Schneider. The deal runs through 2021 and all but eliminates him as a potential replacement for Ted Thompson. That makes director-football operations Eliot Wolf an even more prohibitive favorite for the job. The only promotion left for Ron's son is General Manager.

The recent promotion of Wolf was the Packers way of protecting themselves a bit... while also expanding Wolf's impact in the organization. Wolf is the next GM of the Packers, in my opinion. And it might happen very soon.

Ted has done nothing but groom Eliot. Why would Eliot then turn around with some douchebag power play like that? Show some graciousness, kid.

Ted didn't' have to groom Eliot this way. He's brought Eliot up brought the ranks due to loyalty to Ron. Taught him the ropes, presumably. Showed him the right way to do things. If the kid is gonna turn his back on all that, just to jump ahead a little sooner, then fuck him.

Let him go pull that type of shit elsewhere.

Has Ted ever struck you as whimsical or acting without a plan in place, not me.

I am sure the three know what that plan is, have probably sat down and discussed it, and everyone is comfortable with it.

Wolf could have bolted prior to this, and with the success that Ron Wolf and Ted's front office tree, has probably been floated offers prior... and is still here. The article is correct that it would be foolish to let him walk... but from all steps taken, they are not fools.

Camp filler article that talks in hypothetical... not actual events. In other words, there is no evidence that Elliot is doing anything but growing into the position that has been communicated that is his for the taking. That is just as likely as the alternative of him getting antsy and bolting.

I hope Wolf DOES stay. But who could blame him if some team offers him a great deal, and he goes for it?
I wouldn't blame the guy. But I hope they have talked all of it out already and are just waiting till "Uncle Ted" announces his retirement.

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire
Martha Careful (10-Feb) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : this game is over
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : This might be the kill shot here
