Silverstein: Mike McCarthy wants more talent from next Packers GM

Tom Silverstein, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Published 5:19 p.m. CT Jan. 4, 2018

HE SHOULD

[Freak Out]

I sure as hell hope he does. WTH. TT made a pick for the ages when Arod dropped into his lap...that just doesn't happen very often. But he ha made some real blunders along the path to 2018. Gunk better load this train up and make a run for it before Rodgers is gonzo.

This thread - the title and article anyway - is a breath of fresh air. The one who ain't in Rand's Wizard of Oz pic is the "wicked witch". Ding Dong Ted is gone!

Everybody here, some of us a lot more than others, really really want more talent from the next GM and think that indeed everything possible was NOT being done to Make the Packers Great Again during the Ted Thompson era.

I'm lazy, but I would bet that TTs picks in rounds 1-5 average more years in the league than nearly anyones.

bobble, did you hear the news? The coach says its the talent not the coaching.

While he has fired or reassigned 4 assistant coaches.

TTs heaven reliance on draft and develop also adds to this. We had to keep guys on the roster who shouldnt have been there because we had no other options.

8-10 picks for year, you have to keep 52+ps, means the average lifespan of a TT pick was 5-6 years

If Tt had used free agency more, a lot of those guys would have been out of the nfl sooner imo

The hit rate on free agents is no more than the draft. We are talking about a couple of bodies each year. And the older the team, the less FA you can sign.

I watched that movie over Christmas. Perfect antidote to schmaltz.


MADNESS!

I watched "Death Before Dishonor" (this is peak 80's)

If you take my little example of a 5 to 6 year period. Say you sign a couple more free agent backups every year. That means 10-12 less draft picks on your team

If these free agents are better then those draft picks

And if that’s is the case, then you would have less TT draft picks on the team. IMO all tts draft picks are not staying in the league (on our team) based on talent, but more because of how our team is built

this just in: drunk wants more booze from bartender.

also: death before dishonor LOL Joanna Pacula was way out of Fred Dryer's league.

I hope M3 gets done like Mike Sherman. New GM brings in his own guy after lameducking M3 for a year.

Hey, it worked out pretty good, resulting in the 2007 13-3 season. Let Rodgers have a career refresh also.

The way things are set up, I'm more concerned that Mikey-Mike's backbiting to Murphy will result in Gutty getting sacked after a year if the Packers don't get to the SB. Because MM's go-to now appears to be that he just wasn't given enough talent.

Regarding M3, if this went down the way most of us see it going down (i.e. power grab/complaint channel), then my opinion of M3 has tanked faster than the Packers starting Hundley.

In fact, he wasn't given enough talent, and if Gutekunst doesn't take some major steps in that direction, then maybe he would deserve to get sacked after a year or so.
