1. Favre
2. William Henderson
3. LeRoy Butler
4. Donald Driver
5. Reggie White
William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

How could i NOT put Bob Harlan on my list?
One of the nicest most outgoing "Packer" people i have ever met. When i went up to watch practice one day, i stopped at the front desk and asked if he was in. The lady asked "Do you have an appointment?" and i saod "No, i was just hoping to meet him." She called his office, and i heard her say "Ok Bob....i'll tell him." I of course EXPECTED to hear "Mr. Harlan is busy" but instead heard "He'll be down in a few minutes."
A couple minutes later, here is is, strolling across the Atrium floor! He talked with me, and let me get a pic taken with him! How many Presidents of a major sports franchose would do that???

That's amazing. And truthfully, kind of unsurprising. That's what separates the Pack from other teams..

That's true Matt. If i told that story to fans of other teams, they would probably say "Yeah, SURE that happened." But in GB, we have come to expect that kind of thing. Even so, it surprised me! I mean, who am i? Just a fan. Yet he took time out of his busy day, JUST to let me spens a few minutes with me. But thats the kind of man he is. PURE CLASS!

Not one mention of Paul Hornung. Wow.

Zero, why does my screen name keep changing?

I considered him but there was no room in my top 5. I noticed no one else had him listed either. It is amazing.

Why does your screen name change? 🤔

Well, Green Bay IS the only team to be owned by the fans. Shouldn't an "owner" of a team be able to see the front office? 😃

I was considering both Hornung and Jim Taylor but I was already top heavy in that era.
Just about anybody in the Lombardi era could have been in my top 5.

Wow...I'm flabbergasted. I know there is hatred for Favre, but my gosh, he took us to the Superbowl 2x and MVP 3 straight years.

I'm going to say :
Favre
Reggie
Star
Butler
Nitschke

But there could be SO many more. Sharpe, Driver, Ahman Green, Max Mcgee, Chumura, even Edgar Bennett, Jim Taylor. Wow...we have a great list!

I agree, any list that doesn't include Favre should be removed. I will contact management about this.

WHY?

Its a person opinion on THEIR FAVORITE..Maybe liked their ass in the tight pants ( tromz)...maybe someone gave them something, or what ever..

So why not just let it be whom they want?



1 Reggie
2 Brett
3 Sterling
4 Woodson
5 Eddie Lee

Better clear # 5 with a few people might not agree with it

1. Hutson - Revolutionized the game and position.
2. Favre - Top 3 QB of all time.
3. Bart Starr - How many Super Bowls for the humble assassin?
4. Nitschke - Defined Lombardi's teams of the 1960s.
5. Reggie White - "The Minister"...nuff said!

Honerable mentions:
LeRoy Butler - Made that defense go, and did it ALL very well!! (In fact, make LeRoy #5 and Reggie #6...Butler played over a decade for the same team that drafted him!)

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?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
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
