... in my opinion, if he does not show something encouraging tomorrow, he'll be cut and the Packers will effort Colt McCoy for a late round pick in 2013's draft.

Disagree.. I do not believe he will be cut.. if anything he will be kept on with an additional QB.

Why?

Because he has two years in the offense and system, they have no one else that is going to be able to walk in and know that offense and be ready within a month.

IMO.. many are scrambling on this kid.. I have little concern about him being able to step in and provide as much as Flynn did in the 2010 season. Look no further than week one of the preseason and his drives in the no huddle type situations.. kid can make most of the throws and can play. IMO of course.

I haven't seen Graham Harrell make most of the throws. I've seen a lot of throws into big windows, but when the window is smaller, its late or off target.

Colt McCoy is better than Graham Harrell, but that said, its unfair to compare since McCoy has started and Harrell has not had that opportunity.

Graham Harrell having only one offseason (e.g. Quarterback school) doesn't do him any favors either, nor does his noodle arm and lack of precision passing when throwing more than 25 yards.


Edit, had to edit this to add QB school as I failed in assuming it was obvious. Ooops!!

Graham Harrell 

Spent time on both the Packers’ active roster and the practice squad over the past two seasons after originally signing with the club in May 2010.

Silly me, I don't recall saying Harrell did not lead any scoring drives?
Silly me, I thought I stated my opinion was that Coleman ran a better series than any of them by Harrell?
I so silly.

IMO Ted Thompson will stand pat, but Harrell's days are numbered. He just doesn't have the arm or accuracy. Too bad I actually like him. It wouldn't be surprising to see Coleman #2 before the year is out, almost certainly by next year.
Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

Late May to late-June : Packers hold organized team activities (OTA) and mandatory minicamp. (In recent years, the minicamp has been the final event, in what this year would be the week of June 21.)

Mid- to late-July: Training camps open. (If the schedule holds to recent years, the Packers will open on or around July 31, depending on their preseason schedule.)


2012 there were Minicamps and OTA's.

Plus he spent all last season on the Practice Squad  and 13 games of the 2010 season other there as well. Additionally he was on the active roster for 3 games in 2010 and the postseason.

My point is he has been in this system for 2 plus years.

McCoy is the new savior I guess.. biggest knock on him. Yep Arm Strength. If I was looking to a new project.. I would be plucking Clausen from the Panthers. IMO, he has more to offer than McCoy in the physical tools category.



My only point here is that I don't think Harrell goes anywhere.. I just don't see it happening. May the Packers risk Coleman via waivers and add another option.. that is possible.. but I just don't see them taking the gamble of no Harrell and little to no experience behind Rodgers in this offense.

I think he stays. That's Ted's way and it would take too long to bring somebody else up to speed with the offense. Also, I give him a little (tiny, eensy weensy) break because of the line he has to play behind. Second string OL is POROUS!

What does being in the system (i.e. offense) have to do with the fact he's only had one off season with the Packers? I'll take fault here since I mistakenly assumed we knew why an offseason was beneficial to a quarterback for the Packers, but sure would be nice if you spent more time trying to understand rather than being hell bent on proving me wrong.

I think you're right that Graham Harrell stays on board, but I think that's because he's going to up his game tomorrow night. Ok, maybe HOPE not THINK would be the correct choice of words, lol. I think if Graham Harrell doesn't perform better in game three than he has in the first two games (in other words, progresses positively) he will be in jeporady of being replaced.
