Just read an article in which they listed 32 former Badgers who are currently in the NFL....and the Packers have Tolzien and Aberderris. One an undrafted free agent who will never really see the field and the other to injury prone to see much of it.  I look at many of the others and go what the *$$#*^.  Im thinking an O-Line that has Thomas,Haverstein, Zeitler, Konz etc might be a shade better than what the Pack is suffering with this year.

I still remember when Tim Krumrie went in round ten as an afterthought to the Bengals and the Packers selected Jim Thomas off of the Indiana Hoosiers basketball team instead. Thomas didnt even play high school ball let alone college.  Was TT selecting then as well ;D

Why doesn't Ted Thompson build a wall around Wisconsin and keep our home talent in?  How can we win a championship if we don't even keep our best guys?

On a more serious note, I am finding it amazing to watch former Badger Tight Ends put the hurt on opposing defenses.  2 of the top 5-10 gotta be exBadgers.

I have scratched my head in wondering why TT hasnt taken a chance on any Badger OL. They probably dont fit the multi position that TT wants the OL to play. That is my guess.

Yes the Badgers s hould be known as TE U. Boy they have some stellar ones out there and I do think they fit the Packers offensive but once again, no one pays me to build a team, heck I am not even getting paid to build a road right now ???
