The Green Bay Packers 2017 Offseason v. Ted Thompson is on my shitlist!
I know I'm not the only Packer fan on bl, or maybe I am lol. But this thread is to make roster move announcements, and to list opinions about what the team should do.
Currently the team has released RB James Starks and CB Sam Sheilds.
Fans have given Ted Thompson (General Manager) a pass for the longest time. I think it's time for him to go! Honestly if it wasn't for Aaron Rodgers, this team would be a perennial .500 team. Just look at the season Rodgers got injured for proof. Ted Thompson is wasting this great QB's career with his cheap ass! Rodgers should have at least 2 rings, if not 3! If he would have spent some money on free agency.. one of the few times he did, was with Charles Woodson and what happened? He was named defensive MVP in 09 and we won the super bowl the next season! It's not that hard to figure out, good-great players wins you championships! Then he doesn't sign his own players! He should've signed Casey Hayward a few seasons ago, cause he's a probowler and are CB is thin.. That bit us in the ass 2 seasons in a row! Just imagine that one signing could've saved our asses! Letting sitton go looked like it wasn't hurting us, until the nfccg, when injuries caught up to us, and by the 4th quarter we letroy guion at LG, a DT playing on the offensive line cause of thinness at that position.. IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME!
Speaking of injuries. WTF IS GOING ON WITH THIS TEAM!? Every fucking year! I know we won the super bowl in '10 with 20+ mother fuckers on injured reserved, but no team has ever done anything even close to that, and it was a fucking miracle that we did! We can't expect that to happen every year.. He has to make drastic changes to the medical and strength and conditioning staff! These changes should've been made 5 seasons ago! 1 year having the most injuries in the league is coincidence, leading the league in injuries 6/8 years is a major problem! That's no longer chance, and their doing something very wrong!
So Ted doesn't sign Free agents, doesn't sign his own players and still has the same medical staff.. now onto his draft choices..
He's made 4-5 good picks in 12 years! He's missed waaaay more than he's hit! How many wasted picks on bum lb's and bum defensive linemen has he made? Seriously the one great draft choice was Aaron, and if it wasn't for that pick, this team wouldn't be shit! We can't let this man have a pass cause he made one good pick 12 years ago! And it wasn't that brilliant of a pick. When the guy that is projected to go #1, falls to #24, you fucking take him! No brainier.. Clay Mathews, arod, Jordy, Daniels, and Nick Collins were his good picks.. that's 5 guys out of 84 something picks! Rodgers will be 33 this season. It's time to sellout and sign Free agents and move up in the draft to get impact players. The window in GB is closing! I'll pull my hair out if Ted sits on his ass and squanders Aaron's entire career!
Ted Thompson needs to go! He's an old cheap ass that cares more about profits than championships! I'm sick of his defensive draft busts! Daniels and mathews are the only impact players he's drafted!
Dom fucking Capers needs to go too! The 3-4 doesn't work when you don't have linebackers!! It's like Ted, either get some good linebackers, or get a DC that runs a 4-3! AJ hawk, Frank zombo, Blake Martinez, Jake Ryan, palmer, and all the other bum ass linebackers we've had over the years, are not cutting it to run a 3-4 defense!!! You've had years to build it, and you still don't have the players to run that defense!!
You are an idiot Ted! And you need to go! Some of us want to win championships!
FUCK!!
