Thompson said the fact Rodgers has sat for three years learning under Favre has helped ready him for his new position. Still, he recognizes that filling Favre's shoes is a monumental task, and so his plan is to take pressure off Rodgers by beefing up other areas of the team.
So far, the only significant move he has made is signing free-agent linebacker Brandon Chillar, but he is armed with eight draft picks, including three in the top 60 and could recruit some help that way. It appears he's mostly counting on his current roster to improve.
"I think people understand that mentally and emotionally the practical matter of replacing a guy like that it's still a little bit - I've used this term before - it's a little daunting," Thompson said. "But it's the task we're given and I think rather than put it on the shoulder of one person, like you'd probably do - 'Aaron Rodgers has to take over' - I think it has to be a team effort, an organizational effort to do that because this is really special circumstances."
