After a long career as Packers GM, Ted Thompson stepped down in to a consulting role at the beginning of 2018. To fill his position came Brian Gutekunst who had spent a number of years working under Thompson within the Packers’ organization.
One thing in particular has stood out since Gutekunst took over as GM and that was how much he despised the roster that Thompson had constructed. You have to wonder how much frustration Gutekunst felt sitting in the War Room on draft days watching Thompson and his decision-making process.
But since taking over, Gute has gone into overhaul mode and has been diligently reconstructing the roster into what he believes is a Super Bowl contender.
