Agreed 100%, I imagine most of us, and obviously the front office are still intrigued by what he COULD become, though, but just hasn't been able to display yet.

For reasons like this, I wish the PS could be expanded a little not just in numbers, but who is eligible. I feel like Sherrod has been Abby just on a longer time frame. Unfortunately for him I don't think he's PS eligible, so after being cut by the Chiefs now, he's probably SOL unless someone wants to take a big chance with him on waivers.

I checked on Neal and Crockett, but didn't see anything of them signing with another team.

Abbrederis didn't deserve to make the roster this year. I think he has the ability to play in the NFL and be a very good punt returner and chain moving possession receiver type of guy. Let's hope he makes the most of his opportunity.

Abby, Ringo and Vaughters were the only ones I was really hoping we would keep so I'm happy about that.

Packers.com announced the practice squad... they added one outsider in CB Daniel who was from BYU and signed as an UDFA with the Raiders. They only announced 9 and I think they still have one spot open, I wonder if they might try to sign White to that spot.

WR Jared Abbrederis
LB Carl Bradford
RB John Crockett
CB Robertson Daniel
TE Justin Perillo
DT Christian Ringo
G Matt Rotheram
LB James Vaughters
T Jeremy Vujnovich

Rajion Neal was signed to another team's practice squad, I think it was Miami.

Pinkard is the waived/IR list... which means his agent and the Packers are going to have to come to an agreement on how many weeks are the Packers going to pay Pinkard to heal. After that runs up he'll become a FA, able to sign with any team other than the Packers, and then 6 weeks after that he could then sign with the Packers (that's in place to stop team from using the waived/IR list to hide players on that they want to keep)... so it'll be a bare minimum 6 weeks before they could place him there (probably longer) so they could take a look at another guy in the mean time.

I think White would qualify for one more year, but I'm not sure either, and as others have talked about, after getting cut last minute he's probably going to be upset... and might try to look else where... if anywhere else is interested that is.

They could also be saving the spot for whom ever they plan to release once Datone comes back (if they can be signed to the practice squad at least).
