I thought he did a heck of a job for his clients, … He works hard and earns what he’s gotten.

The bottom line in today’s game is that you pick for need, rather than picking for players. The reality is that you’re going to lose 17 players a year out of your 53-man roster because...

Quarterback is a position that people try to put too many things into it,

We’re just a fart in the wind. This ought to take care of all that silly dynasty talk.

Once we did that, he saw that people here are genuine and real. Everything that is good about the team is personified by the people here. He didn’t go before the Legislature, and Sara didn’t...

I feel very ecstatic what he accomplished, … He’s the third-leading passer all-time, he’s thrown for 50,000 yards, he’s the only three-time MVP; he’s worth a lot more than a first-round draft choice. I really...

I think it’s probably a good thing for the Packers that he’s coming back. I would sure think you’d rather have him than somebody else. I mean, look at these other teams struggling at that...

I think there are different philosophies in the National Football League. My philosophy is, if you don’t have a quarterback, you’re in for a long Sunday afternoon. Other people don’t believe that.

We traded him to the Redskins for Jay Schroeder … talk about really dumb moves, … And I was the guy who led the charge on that one. I don’t think Al will let another...

Nothing’s decided. They asked me to come down and look at their situation and I said I would. I’m waiting to see what they’re going to offer me and to hear from them what they’re...

He was the star of that game, … At that scrimmage, he did everything. He substantiated everything I believed in that he was capable of doing and he did it.

He has watched some pretty good people run them, so I would assume he’s going to do it the way he knows best. The one thing I would say is, no matter what, do it...

Norm Van Brocklin would be there,

What happened in every one of those cases was, we had the guy rated higher and they slipped through. And you say to yourself, ‘If we don’t take this guy, we’re stupid. Let’s pick him.’...

My mind-set was to interview as many as possible.

What that told me was that I now had a chance to get Brett Favre as a player,

The person I heard say it the best was Bum Phillips when they asked him about Earl Campbell. He said, ‘I don’t know if he’s the best, but it won’t take long to call the...

The best old quarterback I ever saw was George Blanda in 1970, but he came off the bench.

Reggie White was the ultimate player at his position for two decades. To have a player of that caliber cast with your players speaks volumes for your team and the direction you want to take...

Shows how smart we all are.

From that point on, I spent four or five days a week talking to Ken Herock trying to somehow massage it and get this so first of all we don’t lose him and secondly this...

They come from everywhere. They have zone dogs, zone blitzes.

He certainly is to the Packers what I’m sure Joe Montana was to the San Francisco 49ers early in both of their careers. He’s obviously our building block.

He’s probably better because he did that. He learned some things. He’s got the monkey off his back now and he’s doing what he likes to do.

I was going to give them a first, … Obviously, I didn’t start at a first, but I was going to give them a first. I had made my mind up and it had already...

I happened to be working with the Jets at the time,

We haven’t been a player in free agency other than to sign our own guys. So the only way we can build this team is through the draft. We only have seven picks total, so...

Here was this guy who had no pretense to him whatsoever, who did no sugarcoating. His confidence was enlightening.

It happened real quickly, we were sitting there hammering, hammering, hammering and I kept saying, ‘I’m not going any higher than a two,’ … I needed them to say something to me and they said...

That’s one I was right on,

It’s a cruel position. It’s a hard one to master. There are so many intangibles, so many factors that come to bear.

Our take is that all of them are reasonable and doable. Some of the [changes] have been norms in our industry for some time. They’re simply spelling them out in the code.

When I got there, this was the worst team in professional football,

I can’t imagine Al letting Gallery go by.

He’s in great physical shape, and he’s young enough to come back. I think if he wanted to, he could go easily to (age) 40. I don’t think there’s any reason to believe he couldn’t...

In Green Bay, field position is so darn important. What can really help you in those elements is a solid kicking game – punter, kicker, holder.

When all those around you have doubt, he doesn’t have the doubt. That’s what he possesses.

We like where we are,

There are a lot of young guys who are doing it, like the guy in Pittsburgh (Ben Roethlisberger), … He’s doing it. They’re seeing a lot of it (pro-style defenses) in college now.

There are probably bartenders who know more about the Patriots than I do. But I know Bill. I wouldn’t be concerned about it. I wouldn’t worry about the Patriots. I think they’ve got the best...

I did it by committee when I was in Tampa Bay (in the 1970s), and it doesn’t work, … It’s nice to think that it works, but it doesn’t.

That’s his accomplishment and no one thought that would happen in Green Bay, Wisconsin. And that’s my sense of pride right there.

There’s no truth to it. That’s just somebody writing something to write something. That’s all speculation.

This is the guy I wanted. They said four or five years, I didn’t care. It turned out there wasn’t anything wrong with him.

I would think he’s worth it. They might not.

I bet there are a ton of qualified young whippersnappers who will be chomping at the bit to get it, … My advice would be take their time to get the right one.

You look at some of these guys that are taking snaps now, it’s a joke.

It doesn’t look like anybody can catch him yet. I haven’t seen enough of his games, but I haven’t seen anybody who can run with him.
