Packers: Why the front office changes are a good idea

The Packers have made few major changes to their front office.

Prior to the recent shakeups, Ted Thompson joined the team as the general manager in 2005, Mike McCarthy became head coach in 2006 and Dom Capers joined as the defensive coordinator since 2009.

While McCarthy still has his position, the other two do not. Capers is no longer with the team and Thompson is now Senior Advisor to Football Operations.

These changes are ones that have felt necessary for a few seasons now.

Lombardi Ave’s own Joe D’Aloisio wrote about the in-house GM candidates to replace Thompson.
