Of the 60 Packers currently under contract, only Julius Peppers has ever played a game for another team. Think about that for a minute
that's absurd.

In today's NFL I would have thought that this was not possible. Pretty bizarre.

I'm kinda shocked that none of us ever came to this conclusion on our own. Now that I think about it, I never watch a Packers game and have memories of those players with other teams. Makes sense.

The 1979 Steelers have that beat. NONE of them had ever played for another team.

i could believe something like that back then when the contracts made them pretty much life long. but in today's FA contract world, it's crazy. if there was a franchise where this would happen, it would have to be the packers. old arse way of working

To be fair, the '79 Steelers also didn't deal with an NFL where a lot of teams have a rotating door.
I'd like to know who's on the opposite end of the spectrum.

This is like David Koresh saying "Only one of these girls has ever slept with anyone else"

I dunno. The 49ers aren't doing a bad job of it either.

I would think this stat would also help in undrafted free agent recruitment. You have a real chance to stick there, since they aren't grabbing free agents to take your place.

I wouldn't have 99% of the players were drafted or signed as UDFA, but I definitely would have said over 90%
That's all analyst talk about: How great of a job Ted Thompson does drafting.
