Only makes sense to cut Johnson if they plan on bringing in a 3rd RB with Lumps getting cut.

It may mean that they plan to have Kuhn take become RB #3 behind Jackson and Grant. Although it's pretty obvious that they like Kuhn near the goalline as a passing and running option.
William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

They like Kuhn near the goal line because he's a triple threat... which gives the Packers more options which Mike McCarthy likes.

Blocking, running and catching... he's not great at any but above average at all three.

There should be a Mel Kiperesque website listing the "Best Available Players" from everybody cut from all the NFL teams. We could go and kibbitz about who the Pack should acquire.
BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

Havner is surprising only because of special teams. I felt like the others were clearly better TEs, but Havner has been one of the bright spots on an otherwise sour special teams.

Yikes, that leaves Jordy Nelson as the return man? He is so god awful slow and tentative that's going to suck, maybe Shields will get some work there? Also they are working on an injury settlement for Blackmon which means they could bring him back but not til week 10... Interesting

I think Jordy is fast in straight line speed. I don't think he can go side to side worth a lick though.

That's the thing about Jordy, He's a good big fast player. But he has no wiggle or shiftiness. He'll crank it out regularly on Kick offs getting us decent position but with his size he'll be hard pressed to be a consistent threat to break the big one. He's not a good fit at PR either.

I wish the Vikings had been dumb enough to flat release that Raynaud kid... there was a return threat!

I think Havner was a better TE than Crabtree. I think they're taking a chance with Crabtree being younger so he can grow more and no one blocks like him on the return units.

Nelson was a good kick returner until he got injured last year, he wasn't slow or tentative and didn't fumble. But most just seem to remember after the injury when he came back and had troubles and clearly didn't trust his knee or what ever his injury was.
