4. Lynn Dickey (1976-85)

Drafted in the third round of the 1971 draft, Lynn Dickey spent the first four seasons of his career in Houston before coming to Green Bay in 1976. When he got here, it took him a while to get settled, as he threw for just 17 total touchdowns in his first three seasons.

Fortunately, he found his groove later on. The 1983 campaign was the best of his career, as he threw for 4,458 yards and 32 touchdowns–both tops in the NFL that season. That number stood as the most passing yards in Packers’ history until Rodgers surpassed it in 2011. Still today, it’s the second-highest in team history. His 32 touchdown passes also ranks ninth.
