Their performance, and being stubborn about not being active in free agency, on defense led to pretty D heavy drafts from 2014-2018 which is why they weren't drafts many WRs high. That part is fair to put on them, but it's pretty recent.

Ted Thompson was a decent GM but his insistence on not signing free agents often held that team back. they should have been busy with free agency every year with Rodgers, not the top guys necessarily as they always were often overpaid big but tier 2 FA's.
