Yeah. A forum gets boring if everyone has the same opinion. Just driving some discussions...

Chester Marcol, just to break up the boredom!
Seeing that guy run with the ball for a TD and slam into the wall against he Bears, just makes me laugh! His glasses are totally retro!

So as the OP you get to pick Reggie but no one else can agree?
Several mentions of Robinson and Nitschke by now also. Besides Dave, I wouldn't mind Butler or Taylor either.

Not sure what else the OP is looking for here? Anyone not named Janis?
lol lets just pick Janis then
Wouldn't we have to cut Jeff first to make him eligible for this list?

He had a mean streak, was a very physical ,sure tackler and was excellent covering tight ends.I knew who he was
He was the type of linebacker we don't have now but are still looking for.

And he made a great play to force Don Meredith to throw a pick on the goal line in the 1966 tile game in the Cotton Bowl. Great linebacker.

Wow, some unfamiliar names for me personally. Great to read up about some the names mentioned here.
I think that's the whole idea of picking Janis.
Personally I have a difficult time picking someone I never saw play. I mean sure I can go off what other people say but then I am not really giving my opinion on the matter. For that reason I will have to go with Reggie White with James Lofton a close second and Sharpe third. If I were to include guys I haven't seen play I'd have to consider Nitschke, Davis and Robinson as well.

For next season: Herb Adderly and Charles Woodson at CB with Willie Buchanan and Al Harris backing them up. Leroy Butler and Nick Collins at Safety with Willie Wood and Eugene Robinson backing them up. Bob Jeter, Ty Williams, Doug Hart and Chuck Cecil to rotate / cover for injuries. Tramon Williams and Doug Evans to the practice squad. Demarious Randall cut in TC and Darren Sharper to prison right out of William & Mary.

Nice pick.
When we got him I thought we had him forever. Three blocked punts, three blocked fg's and a blocked xp to go with 5 int's. How could we not keep him. He was the Mad Stork and the best defensive player on our team. No, Bart didn't want to gaurantee his contract and he became synonymous with the Raiders. I wanted to cry when he left.

Nitschke. It would allow us to move Ryan outside opposite Matthews.

Why would the Packers want to line up Ryan at outside linebacker???

I wonder that too. I see it pop up once in awhile and wonder if I missed something? While Ryan did play OLB at Michigan, he was shifted to middle linebacker his last year and was very productive there. I really don't see him playing OLB, especially in a 3-4 and hope he continues to get better at ILB for the Packers.

Based on the previous NFC Championship Round, I'd go Al Harris all day. Or Ryan Grant. He was the perfect Packer back.

Based on current needs, I would go with Herb Adderley hands down on defense. He was a fantastic athlete, great CB, and a team player. On offense I would probably pick Ahman Green.
What would be great is if the NFL allowed teams each season to sign a "veteran" to a 1 year honorary contract that doesn't count against the cap. The Packers could sign Willie Wood to a current veterans minimum salary of roughly $1M. Wouldn't that make a big difference in Willie's life. They could find a way to make it beneficial for the team, dedicate the season to Willie (or whomever), selling Willie Wood-centric gear in the Pro Shop.

Ahman Green, Lemme tell ya bout KEITH JACKSON, Sterling Sharpe, William Henderson, Bag of Donuts on offense.
The Minister of Defense, Sean Jones, Nick Barnett, Bryce Paup, Leroy Butler, and Brian Williams on defense.
Bring back Craig Hentrich to punt for us too. Beebe and Roell Preston as returners
I am dating myself, now get those kids out of my trailor!!

Thanks, but wasn't mine.
Give credit to El Guapo!
I would have included a die hard Packer fan in that list of $1 M payees, with me being the first recipient.
