The Packers ability to draft has set them up as possibly the best setup team moving forward from here.
To just dismiss them as "oh they haven't won shit" is naive at best.

So how bad are the Patriots at the draft anyway. Seems to me that three Super Bowl victories (and four appearances), the second most regular season wins in the NFL over the last decade, the near-perfect season, and an NFL record nine straight years with either the best, or tied for the best, record in their division suggests they don't completely suck at it, no?
I know it's popular to pick Polian and Newsome as the best. See my prior post. But those guys don't have as many SB appearances or victories BETWEEN THEM as the Patriots do alone, over the timeframe from when BB took over the Pats, right?
