Many believe that Eliot Wolf, the Packers director of player personnel, is on deck to replace Ted Thompson in Green Bay. Of course, Eliot Wolf could have his cake and eat it, a la John Schneider in Seattle. The De Pere native owns Packers stock and a contractual clause that would allow him to leave the Seahawks to become G.M. of the Packers. Eliot Wolf could ask for the same kind of term — and Haslam would have little choice but to agree to it.

It would be an all-in move from Eliot Wolf, who would be trying to quickly prove that he can perform the way Schneider has in Seattle during the final years of Thompson’s time in Green Bay.

It’s also possible that Wolf wants to make his own legacy not in the place where his father’s career reached its heights. If that’s the case, he may want to wait for another opportunity in a team where the General Manager really is the General Manager.

If you don't know what you're doing, then you can be the figurehead. But Wolf has been groomed to know wtf he's doing.

We better not make the same mistake we did with Jon Schnider. Ted is not getting it done, best to let Ted go and start the future with Wolf rather then see wolf walk, and have Ted leave with no backup plan.

The rest of his moves have been a remake of the movie dumb and dumber; ya want to learn on how to destruct a dynasty; talk to Schneider! The guy is an over aggressive fool with mediocre college evaluation skills, horrible pro evaluation skills and he would NEVER have been a GM in GB. I dont think I'd even want him on the staff.
