Eventually, Packers fans knew the day would come when Brett Favre was no more a part of the team than Don Hutson or Bart Starr.
But Titletown is happy to delay Favre's retirement celebration after No. 4 decided he had at least one more season left. Favre's return should make the Packers competitive but there are few guarantees beyond that.
After going 4-12 last season, the Packers canned Mike Sherman and hired
Mike McCarthy, Favre's former QB coach, to right the ship.
Beyond Favre, though, a shortage of playmakers especially after dealing WR Javon Walker to Denver and lack of talented depth means McCarthy, a first-time head coach, has his work cut out for him.

Packers NFL 2006 Draft:

A.J. Hawk could be the safest pick of the first round and is likely a sure starter from the outset. He will make the entire defense better g., with his play and leadership ability. Daryn Colledge is an athletic left tackle who could be moved into the left guard position for the Packers. Wideouts Greg Jennings and Cory Rodgers were added to replace Javon Walker. Abdul Hodge teamed well with Chad Greenway at Iowa and could allow Nick Barnett to move to an outside spot at linebacker. Jason Spitz has experience at guard and center and will push for a starting job as a rookie. Will Blackmon played out of position at wide receiver as a senior, but should be a reliable backup at cornerback. Ingle Martin will carry the clipboard behind Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers. The final four selections will likely end up on the practice squad. Losing Walker hurts, so Jennings will need to make an impact this season.
