[QUOTE="El Guapo, post: 475043, member: 5830"] I'm a big TT guy and have freely admitted it. Although in my book his doodoo smells like everyone elses, not like roses. That said... Wolf did a much better job in the first rounds with OL: 1st Round Picks - Aaron Taylor (1992), John Michels (1996), Ross Verba (1997) 2nd Round Picks - Mike Wahle (1998), Chad Clifton (2000) 3rd Round Picks - Earl Dotson (1993), Mike Flanagan (1996) That's quite impressive because of historical perspective. Taylor and Michels were good but didn't play with us long, and Flanagan was a medical unknown until he hit his prime. Ted Thompson's OL picks: 1st Round - Bryan Bulaga (2010), Derek Sherrod (2011) 2nd Round - Daryn Colledge (2006) 3rd Round - Jason Spitz (2006) Wolf was in charge of 10 drafts to Thompson's 8 drafts thus far. Of all of their offensive linemen picks, the average round was 3.9 for Wolf and 4.27 for Thompson, meaning that Thompson hasn't used as many high picks on OL. In his first 8 drafts, Wolf drafted 14 offensive linemen and Thompson has drafted 15. One could argue that Wolf placed a higher value on OL but it could also be that draft position and quality of linemen available at the Packers' pick play into the equation. The biggest issue from what I outlined above is that it appears TT hit on Bulaga, Sherrod is a medical uncertainty, and Spitz and Colledge never reached their potential....serviceable to average but not anchors of the OL by any stretch of the imagination. Most of Wolf's OL picks in the first three rounds were all studs. [/QUOTE]
