1- When will Harris be back any indications?

2- How effective are you guys expecting him to be?

He will be back Week 6 if I am not mistaken.
I think he'll improve the defense with his presence on the field,yes he will be shaky with his play since he hasn't played football since the 49ers game last year.But his rehab IMO has looked very good so I think it will improve the packers D more some then what we got now.Plus this will put Tramon Williams in his natural nickel position.

As we know he's out for the first 6 games because he's on the PUP. But I'm hoping he'll be in playing shape by Week 7 so he can piuck Favre a couple times to start his season with a bang. But, I will say he plays in Week 9 against the Cowgirls. Green Bay hasn't rushed Harris at all, and I don't think they will especially if we get off to a fast start.

How effective? I have no clue. I will say he'll be better in coverage than the guys we'll have out there Sunday. But if he's lost a step I have no clue what he'll be able to do this year. With an injury like that I don't know how you don't lose a step.

Thanks to pack93z for the sig!!!

He's on the PUP, so 6 weeks minimum.

He'll be rusty, but this is a guy that played in the same season that he had his spleen destroyed. Granted, this injury is different, but given his workout regime and commitment to coming back, I'm cautiously optimistic. Al's a warrior.

The getting off to a fast start part will be more than ideal, in many ways. If we have been shredded multiple times during the first six games, I fear they will rush him back. However, if we hold up decently and win the majority of our games, I could see them giving Al a few weeks of live practice before phasing him back into the games.

I like that idea!

If Al is physically ready to go, they won't keep him off the field for that long. Maybe one week at the most of practice, then they will most likely work him in at nickel and hope he is sharp enough to win back his starting spot soon afterwards.

I do not think he will be as rusty as you would expect.

Unlike Atari Bigby, Al Harris could step onto the field and play right now, but if it goes wrong consequences will be dire. I'd rather have Al for 10 games than 1.

He has been doing light training with gradual intensity, so I think he will be ready for Gameday.

I think we did the right thing by not rushing him back.

It was a good idea to put him out for the first six weeks during the softer part of our schedule. We'll need him for the second half of the season when we get to the tougher part of our schedule. His injury time and recovery will probably be similar to what Mark Tauscher went through a year ago.

    dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
