Our defensive line is pretty dinged up. Both Pickett and Montgomery now are nursing ankle sprains. Jenkins and Jolly have been playing banged up. Raji and Wynn are the only two defensive linemen who have not been on the injury report in recent weeks.

If anything, just to help take some snaps this week during what is amounting to a not very meaningful game for the Packers. Jeremy Thompson is pretty much done for the year, so throw in him on IR and activate Talley or someone off the practice squad.

The move would also make sense with an eye on the offseason.

Now is usually a time teams start collecting players for training camp.

If we're worried about anyone on our PS being poached it makes sense to stash them on the 53.

Thompson won't play again this year and we're deep at Lber anyway.

He was our #1 preseason at ROLB - I really wantd to see him this year; to see how he would do (IMO looks like a much better build then brad jones).
But they refuse to get the guy adequate healthcare (rant off).

Only thing I want for christmas (err the offseason) is someone that can return a kick. Sorry but nelson can maybe return a kick but punts? ... errr and no not our #1 player on D (#21) hes not going to be our return man.

Problem is, who are you going to sign for punt returns? I think that, if we had a good punt returner on our PS, we would've signed him some time ago.

And no, we don't need a kick returner. Jordy is doing a good job. This is something we should address in the draft. Maybe get a corner and KR/PR combo which gives us some special teams play and corner depth. Thinking Perry Cox here.

Anyway, the biggest problem I have is that these guys appear to be horribly raw. We could activate Toribio, but he's slated as a NT right now, in part due to not having the athleticism to play 3-4 DE (From what I've read). And that wouldn't be such a problem, but he's currently only 304 LBS, which would make him quite undersized.

And really, if he didn't get promoted these last 15 times that we had a spot coming up, how much of an impact could he instantly make? He's been a PS body for two years now and just can't get to the 53 man roster. If anything, he'd most likely be another inactive every week.

Need somebody to spell Tauscher. The only old guy on O that didn't get a rest. Lang was in for Clifton and D-Smith in for Wells. And Driver could come and go with WR rotation.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Seems to make sense to activate another d-lineman.

As far as Return man, I say to Ted, call up your good buddy Mike Holmgren and offer him our 1st rnd pick for Cribbs, then pay Cribbs what he is worth, something The Browns so far are refusing to do.
I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

The thing is, everyone is depleted right now. Geez, I was watching the game last night and look at da Bears' DBs. They had one starter left (Tillman) and he got carried off on a stretcher.

We get into the Playoffs and the healthiest team will obviously have an advantage.

I do think it's a good move to let our injured guys have some rest. We need to start thinking playoffs. I'd be resting starters next week. Maybe play a half and that's it. I think it's a good idea to activate either one of those guys.

About the punt/kick return thing. Javier Arenas from Alabama would be a great selection for that. He's a great returner and also not a bad corner.

Yeah, I've been eyeing the same guy (no homo). Maybe if we could snatch him in the second...

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Perrish Cox and Javier Arenas would both be great picks. I think that Cox will be the better corner down the road while Arenas will be the better KR/PR.
