Lots to chew on in McGinn's latest on Ted Thompson and the Green Bay Packers front office, the most news-worthy of which is probably the following:
According to a source familiar with the process, the Lions interviewed just three people: Sheldon White, their interim GM; Kevin Abrams, the Giants' assistant GM; and Bob Quinn, the Patriots' director of pro scouting.
As a Lions' personnel man for 19 years, White had no chance to stay with a franchise that was all about change. Abrams, who had been hired by Accorsi in New York as a salary-cap analyst, lacked depth as an evaluator.
