The Packers had four candidates for the G.M. job that went to Brian Gutekunst. Three came from within the organization, one came from outside.
Via the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the team interviewed former Bills G.M. Doug Whaley for the job. He was the only minority candidate Green Bay interviewed.
“Doug Whaley really did a job with the interview,” CEO Mark Murphy said. “I think it was not confirmed, but he was the fourth interview. I knew him a little bit, so I enjoyed having a chance to spend some time with him. I’m a Bills fan, so I follow the Bills a little more closely than some of the other teams.
