That's a reason to work. Absolutely no reason to WANT to work harder, except to prove fans wrong, which possibly contributed to the injury in the first place - if he pushed himself too hard training.

It's silly that fans can boo a guy before they know anything about him and then be proud of being a Packers fan.

Well, I'm a fan and I haven't labeled him a bust. I have kidded about him extensively, but that isn't quite the same. I know, for example, that he is in the best shape of his career right now. He lost what, 16 lbs.? He does need to get back out there, we need some NFL starting football player caliber play out of him, some have said sooner rather than later, I say later has left the building, and sooner is here... last time I checked we have a pretty big game coming up against what I hear is a pretty good team. So help me lord, if Ted Thompson or MM come out tomorrow and say Justin is getting another surgery to help speed up his recovery (which is exactly what occurred last time) just prior to the anticipated re-activation of him...
well, I'll just have that much more time to come up with some more twinkie jokes as regards [strike]Bustin[/strike] Justin Harrell.

hey now Bustin is safe he won't be cut after all he was drafted by Ted Thompson and we know he is god when it comes to drafting. I say hell with it cut his ass and move on

You can't do that until he gets a chance to see what he can do. DT's don't drop off trees and McCarthy says he's gotten into the best shape since he been here. Now is not the time.

Most interior DL take a couple of years to physically handle the NFL game. We have a couple of guys now that didn't set the world on fire when they first got here either who turned out pretty good.

I think the coaches think he's a player just like they thought with Blackmon and they showed patience there and it payed off.

I could just see the fodder thrown Ted's way if he did cut him now that he's getting healthy and he does outstanding for another team. Besides, what are they going to do? Cut him and make the interior DL rotation that much leaner and take some guy off the practice squad?

...And in the meantime I have coined yet another disrespectful phrase right here at the beginning of this thread. Until Justin is activated, if you see me posting something like, "Where the Harrell was Al on that play?" Or, "Why the Harrell isn't Pickett playing?"--- You'll know what I mean...

How about if he steamrolls a QB or RB? Stay the Harrell down!

Just trying to be positive.

It must really suck watching football and not having a clue whats going on or how things work.

You don't cut a first round draft pick after a season an half of being a complete flop.

It has nothing to do with who drafted him, no GM would do that, atleast not any GM that will have his job the following year.

throwing into the middle of the season is a sure-fire to make sure he gets injured again. if he's not ready, he's not ready.

"IronMan" wrote:


If he's healthy enough to practice for 3 weeks, then shouldn't he be healthy enough to play? Besides, if he isn't activated this week, then he must go on IR anyway, per PUP list rules. So what is the risk of playing him?

Get his ass in there and lets see what he can do.

He is said to be in the best shape of his pro career.

But he's not in football shape yet is his problem.

Also I'm not sure if it's true but I've heard that the Packers can keep him on the PUP list and active him before Tuesday. On Tuesday he'll be put on the IR.

From the sounds of what I've heard it sounded like MM knew he was going to active Harrell. He just didn't know when. I don't think MM wants to cut someone for Harrell until Harrell is ready or if they have to put Harrell on IR.
