To be honnest I was okay about this pick thinking that it's just a year or two at max until he gets 100% but ... I'm fed up. Your here to play football if your going to get injured on every play in practise just quit and go find another hobby. This ain't for you. It's really has become ridiculous.
Glad To Be A Packers Fan.

I still can't believe we reached for him with the 16th...

This is the first time I've been close to saying "to hell with it". He better be healthy by the regular season.

We interrupt our regularly scheduled programing for this special announcement,

"Justin Harrell is injured."

Have you heard this one before? :sleepy1: Oh. :horse: Never mind.
We now return you to your regular program which will be joined in progress.

I'm not worried. Its not like he has a history of getting injured.

I think this is just a freak accident. You usually know that they're freak injuries when the injury report says something like CHRONICAL back problems or REAGGRAVATED [insert body part here] WHICH UNDERWENT [insert number of occurences here, must be >1] SURGERIES.

This reminds me of the Friday the 13th movies they just keep making sequels every year and it always ends the same way.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be šŸ™‚ (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Let's take a look back, shall we, to the golden days of yore. Let's go way, way back, all the way to August 3rd, 2009, a full eight days ago. The headline in the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reads, "In Good Repair: Harrell's Back Appears Fixed." Read it and weep, my friends:

http://www.jsonline.com/sports/packers/52391712.html 

Seriously, the article is not nearly as encouraging as its title implies. Here's the part that scared me when I read it:

But as he prepared for the second surgery on the eve of training camp one year ago, he was given sobering news.

"I was scared because the doctor told me if I did have a second surgery, the chances of me playing were . . . very slim," Harrell said. "He did tell me, 'Two surgeries and you wouldn't play at all' last year, and my chances of ever playing again were like, very slim. When you hear that from the doctor, it's just one of those things you don't want to think about. This is your whole career."

Oh well. I'm sure the coaches really weren't counting on him to be healthy this year. Any playing time this year is a bonus.

This is compounded by the missing Raji, Jolly, and the reluctance to sign some veteran depth along the defensive line.

I am sure the Teddy won't rely on Harrell and will add some protection in depth if the answer isn't on the roster at the moment.. but I can't help but think back to last years ill fated decision to hold out hope on KGB and Harrell only to be disappointed in the end.

On a related note, Carter and Holiday's tires were kicked by the Patriots in the past couple days.. not that they are a long term answer, but maybe short term insurance.

Ted should really start exloring those options. Apparently, he wasn't that sold on our depth along the D-line to begin with, as he did try to get Canty to come here.

Don't get me wrong, we have quite some depth, but the problem might be the same as that with the O-line, it's not really quality depth. Anthony Toribio has apparently been doing pretty decent, but nearly all of these guys are undrafted FAs. Not that they can't work out eventually, but why not take a look at Carter and/or Holiday.

As to Justin, this really sucks for him. He sounds like a pretty good kid and I believe that he can make a difference on the field if he'd actually get/stay healthy once.

You have to look at the big picture.

Which DB, LB and WR gets cut so Ted can sign some extra insurance on the D-line?

This does impact the final 53 roster spots.
