Like Pack93 said, this is hardly a surprise. I was still silently rooting for Heckendorf, but I knew that that was a longshot.

I like that we got Williams back on our PS. Don't know why we cut a guard to get another receiver on the roster, though. I mean, we could at least replace this player on a position of need with another player on that same position, right?

I wanted Heckendorf too... I wonder why they didn't bring him back with Williams... (Edit: I want them to sign Heckendorf to the practice squad but they couldn't because he's on the Lions' practice squad already...)

Also I don't see OG as a need.

"I will prepare and some day my opportunity will come."

-- Abraham Lincoln --

There are many of the 1,800 players in the NFL who tolled on Practice Rosters and then grabbed opportunity by the throat. I hope they give him a locker right beside Ryan Grant.

This is the big show kid. The world is watching.

As the fictional Terrance Mann in "Field Of Dreams" said... "There comes a time when all of the cosmic tumblers click into place, and the universe opens just for a moment when anything is possible."

Go Packers!

I hope he catches the game winning score with :01 left on the clock that demoralizes the Vikings for years to come.

As long as that is 1 second left in the 1st half. And we never look back from there.

Not surprising. He was the most likely candidate to get added to the 53-man roster. His size reminds me a bit of Ruvell, so hopefully he can be that lanky 5th receiver we had when Ruvell was and make a few plays on offense and special teams.

6-4, 196lbs, and runs a 4.5.
Thing is he was real raw coming out. I think he's got a chance to make some plays in the offense. He's been getting more practice reps lately too with all the injuries to Jordi and the other guys. Another secret weapon!

OG isn't, but the offensive line as a whole is. Lang was projected to be a guard, as well. Just like Kampman is a DE.

They might've seen something in the kid that made him a viable tackle. I guess it wasn't coming out, though.

What I would like to see is us bringing in some no-name blocking TEs or something, let them bulk up a little and convert them to tackles. If they can get the strength to come with the bulking up, they're usually really athletic. Something like Jason Peters.

I know, small hit chance, but it'd be worth it if you ask me.
