It's unclear how much of an interest the Packers have in bringing back RB Cedric Benson, but it appears they're willing to meet with him to see how much progress he has made with the Lis Franc fracture in his foot.

Is it genuine interest or is it just a pre-draft smokescreen? That's the question to ponder about running back Cedric Benson visiting the Packers on Wednesday. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Benson is scheduled to go to Green Bay for a meeting with the Packers, the team he played five games with last season

I respect his drive, but the guy is done.

He did nothing to make us any more dynamic. And when he was a weapon, like McCarthy did with Cobb -- his usage was wayyy too obvious.

Plus DuJuan Harris is the future of this team, and nobody except James Starks and the RB we draft should take any touches away from him.

The reality is, even Peterson would have hard time with our pour run blocking. If McCarthy commits to not running the outside Zone, gets our guys blocking more forward instead of lateral, and commits to it, any of our guys could do the job. None of them are any less than Edgar or Dorsey were.
