Packers Release WR Sederrick Cunningham

Wide receiver Sederrick Cunningham was released by the Green Bay Packers on Friday, according to the NFL's transaction wire.

Cunningham didn't even last through one full training camp practice after dislocating his left wrist on the first day of camp last July. He had surgery almost immediately and was placed on injured reserve, where he spent the remainder of the season.

The Packers avoid having to pay Cunningham an injury settlement, like they would have had they released him last season when he was first injured.

Cunningham was signed to the Packers roster last April after being out of football for a full year.

The Packers are short on wide receiver depth after releasing Cunningham and James Jones left the team in free agency last month, but they figure to add several either during the upcoming NFL Draft or sign several as undrafted free agents not long after.

Wait...Wait...Wait... Where are you getting this from??? BTW, didn't James Jones (excluding the run blocking) have those mentioned issues? He finally came around. Mike is talented.

For every site that says he has bad hands I bet I can find another that says he has nice strong hands. I also seen some that labeled him a consistent run blocker and fairly productive.Take what the "experts" say with a grain of salt. And with James Jones - I'm going by what I've seen. I wasn't going by his pre-draft analysis. That's what US FANS was saying about him before he finally got it together. Slow,never goes all out for the ball,he was known for his drops,he was a scapegoat at one point,scared of the middle. If memory serves me correct,A-Rod threw a pick this season due to James Jones pulling up on a slant route or post route.

I'm not saying we should draft him in a high round. I'm just saying he's talented and he runs good after the catch. Simple.

THIS IS AN OUTRAGE! How can they let a talent like Sederrick Cunningham go? Who's Rodgers going to throw to now? I'm going to have to rethink my whole fantasy football strategy for next season. Great, just great! Fire Thompson now!
