To kind of broach the subject matter of debate yesterday, we all are too singular in our praise or wrath of personnel matters placed upon Ted Thompson.. this staff here is paid millions to make judgment calls and scouting outlines on both college players coming in, but as well NFL, CFL and other league players that could be acquired by the Green Bay Packers.
Sure Ted may have the loudest voice in the room, but make no mistake these gentleman's opinions and words matter very much..
It is easy to pin the praise or blame upon one person, but honestly no decision isn't a collective one..
Your Green Bay Packer personnel staff...
