Despite Rodgers' comments, don't get your hopes up Packers fans. The normally tight-fisted Thompson isn't likely to change his outlook when it comes to free agency, despite the frustrations emanating out of Green Bay -- both inside and outside the locker room.

Nice to see a piece that promotes the view of someone who gets it

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Aaron Rodgers got right to the point and I agree with him. Thanks for sharing the article.

You could see his frustration, every time he entered the field the defense had just given up a TD.

Well the cap should be favorable. Supposedly going to low 160 million range this year. Shields will free up 9 million, we won't be paying julius 8 mil...

We could live without signing a single one of the above. Guion can play G. 😁 Honestly, if all those guys were gone it wouldn't matter that much to me. Cook would be the one I would want to keep above all others. Lang might be a reasonable deal due to his injury. It may have been a huge blessing having him hurt. Same for Tretter and Bulaga who is duct taped at this point. Same goes for Eddie and Goode is a vet min deal anyway. Perry is a question mark. Hurt all the time or playing not fully healthy. Hard to pay a guy who is like him but we have nobody else. Fackrell looks like Todd Pinkston for crying out loud. Gain some weight, buddy.

The money will be there. Jordy will be gone soon...there's money to save from him, too. Randall ain't worth 10 mil. Restructure him down. We should have a pile to do things but I'll bet a team like Dallas makes the moves we won't. They're hungry here to fix their D. Stephen Jones is going to attempt to do it. I wish Ted Thompson would come out and boldly claim ANYTHING. He's just silent. Did he speak today? No. What a pussy. Always a hiding pussy. Not a man at all. Such a disgrace being led by that clown. We have our future first ballot HOF begging for ALL IN. MM begging for help last year. Ted Thompson just says nothing and does next to nothing. Honestly, an utter disgrace of a GM on so many levels. He says of 4-6, 'just the way it goes in NFL'... and that it wasn't "underachieving or anything'...then says our turnaround was an 'astronomical feat'????? Call 4-6 what it was. A disgrace and unacceptable. Nope...just the way it is. Oh, but we start winning and he comments about it being an astronomical feat. Such a weird weird man. I don't want him running my favorite sports franchise. I've hated almost every single minute of him save for the Favre stuff which I loved. He's so weird he actually did that to Brett. Love it. Do something Ted...wake up little susie, wake up. Time is short.

Zero2Cool (6h) : And now some Packers blogger is like Doubs to Steelers makes sense!!!!
Zero2Cool (6h) : You saw me Tweet???

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning
Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?
beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.
beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.
dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition
Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.
beast (4-May) : NFL really needs to fix their position labeling issue, but I don't think they care
Zero2Cool (1-May) : Packers did not activate the fifth-year options for linebacker Quay Walker, with the goal of signing him to a contract extension.
Zero2Cool (1-May) : Matthew Golden spoke with Randall Cobb before draft. Looked like chance encounter.
packerfanoutwest (1-May) : from a head left turn?
packerfanoutwest (1-May) : someone drunk?
Zero2Cool (1-May) : Unlikely.
dfosterf (30-Apr) : How long until Jeff Sperbeck's family sues John Elway ?
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.
beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans
dfosterf (30-Apr) : Luke Elzinga Punter Oklahoma stil unsigned. Green Bay has been mentioned as good fit

Martha Careful (28-Apr) : RIP Packer Safety Tim Brown
beast (27-Apr) : Yeah, but also some of the wording suggestions Jax only pranked called the QB, not the others... and if he had an open spreadsheet & 3 calls
beast (27-Apr) : Thank goodness he's not leaving the Turtle in the Red Tide
Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Cowboys 1st round pick Tyler Booker will indeed be bringing his pet turtle to Dallas with him
Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : that contained all prospects info and contact
Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : beast, according the Falcons statement Jax came across it on an ipad. If I had to guess, probably an open spread sheet or something
Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Simmons put up an emoji with cheese.
beast (27-Apr) : Not sure anyone is interested in Isaiah Simmons... Collin Oliver might of taken his potential slot
beast (27-Apr) : I'm going with Jax Ulbrich is not telling the whole truth... he accidentally came across it? Why would a defensive coordinator have a QB #?
Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : He's not that great, but final piece of the script.\
Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : If we add Isaiah Simmons, book your Super Bowl tickets
Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Colts 1st round TE Tyler Warren also got prank called, was that Jax Ulbrich as well?
Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Jax Ulbrich, Jeff Ulbrich’s son, released an apology for his role in the Shedeur Sanders prank call.
Martha Careful (27-Apr) : apparently he did not participate in practice or play on the east west shrine game nor the NFL combine. The kid was a mediocre spoiled brat
Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Yeah that one that was a super wounded duck that Sanders supporters are highlighting to prove a point
Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Shough is the guy who missed guys at combine isn't he?
beast (27-Apr) : It's not official until I'm dead! I have a chance still! (Not really)
