It still baffles me that there people that cannot stand former Packers general manager Ted Thompson.
Green Bay’s 13-year GM was inducted into the Packers Hall of Fame on Saturday night — and rightfully so. Thompson was very good at getting diamonds in the rough and he had a very successful run with eight straight playoff seasons.
Thompson was an outstanding Packers GM. The Packers were 125-82-1 during the regular season and 10-8 in the playoffs during his time in the big chair.
But is Thompson the best Packers general manager? No way. That honor goes to Ron Wolf, simply because Wolf had to build up the current Packers success from nothing.
