Cheesehead TV’s co-founder Aaron Nagler had a “loving” (?) way of referring to Green Bay’s new Senior Advisor and former General Manager Ted Thompson. Make-Sure-We’re-Good-In-Three-Years Ted Thompson. I’m sure there was a level of frustration with that sentiment, but to a point there is value in it. The next general manager of the Green Bay Packers was always going to have a manageable roster situation.
Would I bring back TJ Lang? Yes. Will Ted "Make sure we're good 3 years from now" Thompson? I doubt it.
Cap space, talented young players, and draft capital.
