GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Ted Thompson insists he likes the inside linebackers on his roster, yet at the same time the Green Bay Packers general manager is glad his team doesn't have to line up and play with them for almost five more months.
So which is it?
Either Thompson feels good about Sam Barrington and Jake Ryan as his opening-day inside backers or he’s going into next week’s draft intent on finding a new starter.
“We think it’s a pretty good group,” Thompson said this week during his annual pre-draft press conference.
