Yesterday, we sorted through Ted Thompson’s track record to find glimpses of how he is likely to view the Packers’ draft needs on the offensive side of the ball. 

Casual Packer fans and draft junkies alike usually watch the draft by putting ourselves in the Ted Thompson’s shoes, grading each pick by how far it varied from what we would have done.  

Bob McGinn of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel has several tidbits on the Packers front office. 

The main thing worth noting in Packers news this week is the release of the 2016 NFL schedule.

The Packers’ release of Nate Palmer means one of three things.

The Packers finally lit up their section of the NFL free-agent scoreboard this week by signing tight end Jared Cook to a 1-year deal. 

NFL Network reports the veteran tight end is in Green Bay to sign a contract. 

Green Bay Packers general manager Ted Thompson recently promoted Eliot Wolf.  Thompson insisted that the promotion had nothing to do with a succession plan.  But with a flexible young dynamo like Eliot Wolf ready and waiting in the wings, is there really any reason to wait?

The Packers general manager met with reporters briefly on Monday at the NFL owners meetings in Florida. 

I think I am the only Packers fan who is a bit troubled that Ted Thompson didn't even bother trying to re-sign Casey Hayward.

If the Green Bay Packers are to have a successful 2016 season, it will likely have been fueled by a talented group of second year players led by top picks cornerbacks Damarious Randall and Quinten Rollins.

The beginning of free agency has come and gone.  Free agency itself is certainly not over, but there are a lot of dream targets for Packers fans...
