You retired too? .... Not me. I'm in my prime
It is an interesting take on Ted's three year window so far.. can't say I disagree with the viewpoint. Ted has built a team with depth.. but the crown jewel of the drafts has yet to be judged fairly.

There’s absolutely no question that GM Ted Thompson believes in building a football team through the draft. That makes his first three years on the job a bit ironic, because truth be told, the Packers haven't been all that great on the last weekend in April.
It’s funny to think back to when Thompson was hired in January 2005. At the time, nobody questioned his ability to draft, but some wondered about his ability to actually build a team. Three years later, he’s put together a real powerhouse, and that one weekend in April has played a smaller part in the success than anyone could ever have imagined.
