Ron Wolf was always looking for QBs and drafted 7 during his 11 years as GM.  He also brought in QBs as FAs trying to find someone overlooked by other teams.  He and his scouting staff actually did a very good job when you consider that 4 of his drafted players had respectable NFL careers -Aaron Brooks : 1999 / Rnd. 4; 93 Games / 90 Games StartedMatt Hasselbeck :1998 / Rnd. 6; 209 G / 160 GSMcAda : 1997; No Recorded Stats on Pro-Football-Reference.comWachholz (1996 / Rnd. 7); No Recorded Stats on Pro-Football-Reference.comBarker 1995 ; No Recorded Stats on Pro-Football-Reference.comMark Brunell : 1993 (193 G / 151 GS)Ty Detmer : 1992 / Rnd. 9; 54 G /25 GS - (The Packers used the 1992 first round pick to acquire Brett from the Falcons)Thompson took Rodgers after he fell in the draft but otherwise stunk at drafting QBs.
