Ted Thompson

ll have the Seahawks in the playoffs in 2 years.  I think he'll blend the best of Ron Wolf and Ted Thompson into becoming a super GM.  He's also a very nice man; easy and fun to talk to.  I met him at Wisocnsin and watched some Penn State film with him.  I learned more in 45 minutes of "scouting" with him than I would have ever done on 5 hours of my own.  By the way, I told him Jay Alfred was boom or bust and that Posluzny was an NFL starter.  I guess I was 2 for 2, wonder why he hasn't called me about a scouting job yet?

Ted Thompson is a tricky guy. Last year's draft had me confused. I thought to myself, "A DT?" Really? I don't believe that was a need. Who knows Justin Harrell might become a Pro Bowler. I love James Jones. A nobody from San Jose State. I felt he was a great third receiver for the Packers. Jones was not a big name college star. Neither is the Packers first pick in 2008, Jordy Nelson. However, Nelson has speed and that could be big on Special Teams.
