    http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-network-total-access/09000d5d81e61403/Top-10-Packers

    10. Curly Lambeau
    9. Ray Nitschke
    8. Jim Taylor
    7. Paul Hurnung
    6. Forrest Gregg
    5. Reggie White
    4. Bart Starr
    3. Brett Favre
    2. Don Hutson
    1. Vince Lombardi

    Thought the order may vary (I suspect a few might swap Favre and Starr now, or put Taylor and Nitschke higher) its hard to argue with a lot of it. Nitschke, Taylor, Hutson, Hornung, Starr, White and Favre would make most lists and presume Lombardi will always be no. 1. Maybe Willie Davis would make a lot of lists too. I guess hard to judge, and these things are a bit of harmless nonsense and speculation anyway.

    Rodgers goes straight in at #3. :D

    It's an impossible list to compile. Sterling Sharpe should be in there, as should James Lofton, Willie Wood, Ron Wolf, Mike Holmgren, Mike McCarthy and Ted Thompson. And how can you leave out the originator of the Lambeau Leap? Can we make space for Greg Jennings, too? :pac:

    I presume for Reggie White its the length of his stay there thats counting against him because for me he should be no.1 if its just based on how good you were.

    Seeing as Sharpe and Lofton were both mentioned above, here is another compilation from 2009, showing the top 5 Packers receivers. The stats are a bit dated in places for obvious reasons, and of course we can all think of one more person knocking on that door.

    Lombardi will alway, ALWAYS be #1 for the pack. I'd have White at #2. Definately ahead of Favre

    I guess one thing that militates against White as being the best Packer player ever is that most might think of him as being the best Eagles player ever!

    I know he can be top at both, but...
