Considered to be one of the first truly great Guards of the game, Mike Michalske would earn the honor of being the first Offensive Guard to make the Pro Football Hall of Fame.  Michalske would make an immediate impact for the Packers after his three-year stint with the football version of the New York Yankees and he would win three NFL Championships and three First Team All-Pros in those first three years.

Michalske was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame as part of their second class in 1964 and was chosen as part of the inaugural Packers Hall of Fame class in 1970.
