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.

I don’t think any Packer fan would.

            Also on Thursday night, it was revealed Favre would grace the cover of Madden 2009. I do not know about you, but I will definitely purchase myself a copy. Well
