He's had a lot of great moves. Big moves.
I am making this tough because you only can choose ONE.

The move from Favre to Rodgers.
No question in my mind. That move is the single biggest reason we're set up to be contenders for the next decade.
Getting Clay.
Rodgers was pratically a gimme, considering his draft board. Sure, it took a lot of guts, and he is our best player, but he didn't have to do anything but select him. One might say he got lucky.
It's a different discussion with Matthews. First of all, most didn't have him as high as he was taken, so he outscouted almost all teams. And then was the move, packaging picks to trade up to get him, outwitting Bill Bellichick (who is still looking for a pass rusher) in the process.
That might go down as one of the best draft moves of all time.
But how much that had to do with Ted Thompson? He had no influence in 23 other teams passing on Rodgers.You can say Rodgers was a no-brainer but he certainly wasn't a no-brainer for 23 other teams. Drafting Rodgers is, by far, Thompson's best move.
Thank you. I thought it was funny..... guess you and I are the only ones with that sense of humor!First of all, I LOL'd hard at Brian Brohm being on this list. :lol:
Yeah, I just noticed it and went full WTF mode.Thank you. I thought it was funny..... guess you and I are the only ones with that sense of humor!
Woodson was a good move but whenever its brought up people seem to say no one in the league wanted him. Thats a load of sh*t. No player gets a 50 million dollar contract if no one wanted them.
I've always been under the assumption that the offer he agreed to was far from the Packers' first offer to him. It took that much money to get him to agree to play in cold dinky Green Bay, even with no other offers. By every single account I've heard, Woodson didn't receive an offer from any other team.
Trading a washed up Favre isn't on the list?
Getting rid of that *****ser was precious, but I didn't want to put that in this poll because that was as much Mike McCarthy as it was Ted Thompson, plus I wanted it about adding a specific player, of which Ted has done a great job of.Yeah this is more what I would think of with Rodgers. TT made the decision to move on with Rodgers and end the Favre era which was the best move TT has made.
