[QUOTE="El Guapo, post: 937396, member: 5830"] Gutekunst jumped on what he thought was his Ted Thompson moment to draft the next QB of the future. People were irate at Thompson for drafting Rodgers. He was no shoe-in and it strained the Favre relationship. In the end, it was the best move that Thompson ever made. The Packers are almost always .500 or better meaning that we almost always draft at the bottom of the first round. We never would have gotten a top QB without having a terrible 2-or-3 win season. Gutekunst saw an opportunity to get what he thinks is the next QB for Green Bay. I have ZERO issue with that. The question is will it pan out. Fans focus on this year. Good GMs focus on the long term. Hence why most fans call GMs idiots. The fans can't see beyond their own feet and GMs have to make best guesses about the future, hoping that their decisions from two or three years ago make winning possible now. [/QUOTE]
