Reggie White

White was one of the classiest and most liked players to ever wear a Green Bay Packers uniform. We were very lucky to have him. He spent the first half of his career with the Philadelphia Eagles — a stink that is hard to wash off. However, he will always be known as a Packer — he was with the team from 1993 until 1998. Just like Favre, White was a part of the Packers team that won Super Bowl XXXI. He was named to the Pro Bowl 13 times in his career. He was also named to the NFL 75th All-Time Team.

Vince Lombardi

Lombardi needs no introduction but here goes: He was head coach of the Packers from 1959 until 1967. His tenure as coach oversaw a lot of important changes to the Packers and the league as a whole. He was named NFL Coach of the Year in 1959 and 1961. He was also General Manager during those years and also in 1968 after John Phillip Bengtson took over as head coach. The trophy that the Minnesota Vikings will never touch just happens to be named after him.
