I say we are an average team on the rise with lots of young potential. TT took over a club that was slightly above average and on a serious decline with little potential in young players. The fact that TT made this turn-around so quickly is something he should be applauded for.Originally posted by bbbffl66I forget. What is TT's record as GM? Way over .500 right? To say I'm an idiot because I believe TT has reached his own personal Peter Potential is ridiculous. We can disagree, but we all want the same thing- a Super Bowl. Some of us believe thta we are farther away now because of TT's moves-or lack thereof. I hope we are wrong.
Winning in todays NFL is not as simple as a mere decision. It takes a lot of work and development.

Re: Thompson Bashers = Idiots
Originally posted by Reggie 92Good thing the brass in GB has more common sense than the legion of idiots that have made bashing TT their pastime. When Harrell opens up lanes for Hawk and blossoms into a disruptive force will they still be clammoring for Meachem who showed up to Saint's camp out of shape and unmotivatied?
I read the posts on this website apprxoimately 3 times a week and rarely post. All the "doom and gloomers" ..while I believe they probably have the Pack's best interest in heart, are stuck in 1996. It's a decade later and the NFL has evolved. It's not the era of leaving your franchise players unprotected and vulvnerable to free agency. It's an era of drafting smart and
Thompson is genius. Look at the '06 draft. He revamped a OL to fit the scheme with competent and skilled players and added a franchise player in Hawk. Jennings could blossom into something special..a pro-bowler.
The lasting image of this draft is the group of 13 year olds booing the selection of Harrell. How shameful.. The kid looks like he's going to be special. Look at his combination of size, penetration, run support, and leadership. The man pleyed hurt when it counted and PRODUCED.
It would be nice to have a player PRODUCE on the field BEFORE you nominate them for the freakin hall of fame. Just because you believe something that will come through in the future does'nt make people who dis-agree with you idiots. It just makes them REALIST'S who would prefer to actually see production on the field before making a conclusion.
Also with Harrell's injury history, it's pretty damn foolish to just assume he's gonna be healthy enough to produce. Is it all right if some of us watch him play a full season BEFORE we slap Teddy on the back? I hope Harrell is an improved version of Gilbert, but I've seen what a healthy grave-digger could do while Harrell has'nt played an NFL down.
As far as the overweight Meachem goes, geez it's only MINI CAMP. No one in their right mind makes any judgements this early.
Contrary to what some around here believe, FANS are what make the NFL, therefore they have every right to voice their opinion and just because it differs with you, does'nt make anyone wrong at this point since nothings been proven.
Honestly, as I've stated before, if you look at all the Packer fan opinion polls through out the internet, your opinion is in the minority. The majority of fans who voice their opinion believe the DL was not a position of need while several other positions on this team are. The majority of analysts have stated the same thing.
Only time will tell who is right and who is wrong. The real idiots are the ones who believe at this early stage, that any conclusive proof exists one way or the other because it DOES'NT! Thompson is not an idiot nor is he a genious. He's done a great job in some areas and a lousy job in a few others. We'll have a much better idea after this season, where we are headed.

I booed the pick, and I'm an idiot, so therefore...
...wait...what were we talking about again?[QUOTE=George Cumby] ...every draft (Ted) would pick a solid, dependable, smart, athletically limited linebacker...the guy who isn't doing drugs, going to strip bars, knocking around his girlfriend or making any plays of game changing significance.

Boy, this thread really encourages differing opinions.
Kinda sad when you think about it. If you aren't excited about this years Packers team, you're an idiot? Ok. Well then, I know a bunch of people who are idiots. A BUNCH.
That's why they play the games. I hope, come week 7, and the bye week, I'll be pleasantly surprised... If I am, I'll still be here, taking the crap from all you "positive Ted lovers". If I'm not pleasantly surprised, I'll be taking apologies from all of you.

You will play some kind of injury card
And I'll point out we had plenty of cap space to fill gaps so the injuries wouldn't hurt us nearly as much
We'll be able to take our debates to new horizons
TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER
