The Green Bay Packers dropped their roster down to the mandatory 75 man limit today. The biggest surprise is DeShawn Wynn, who has missed practices and games this off-season. Kregg Lumpkin’s play in last Friday’s Denver game must have been the final push for cutting Wynn.
Also cut were fullback Ryan Powdrell, wide receiver Chris Francies and offensive lineman Ryan Considine. Francies will no doubt land an NFL job with someone in need of receivers as I have to believe he is better than most teams fourth wide receiver.
Least surprising? Justin Harrell has been placed on the PUP. That’s the Physically Unable to Perform List. The bold represents the waste of a first round pick in 2007. Harrell is officially a bust. He will miss six games and then….who knows. Waste some more of the Packers time and money I’m sure.
