Lito released by Jets 




The Jets cut cornerback Lito Sheppard on Thursday after just one season with New York. The 28-year-old vet played in 11 games last year and was due a large roster bonus this month.

Sheppard is now a free agent and able to sign on wherever he pleases.



I have always felt like he would be a good fit in Green Bay, and with Al hurt I think that he would make a very nice addition without disrupting plans for a future there. (Except maybe Bush's, lol) He got sort of hosed in Philly, imo when they got Asante.

Lito is a two-time pro-bowler, for you trivia buffs.

Here's a profile on him.Yahoo NFL profile

I'm inclined to agree - I was vocal about wanting the Pack to try to get him from Philly, and I do think he'd be a good addition. Definitely hosed in Philly, and the Jets didn't use him very well, IMO.

I am a little worried about Al. I know he's got guts and the want-to and all those things but I was not aware of how serious his injury was until it was brought out in this forum.

I am not sure we can count on him so I would say go for it because even if we got Al back and found a sweet deal on one in the draft you can never have enough CB's.

I mean how many teams have you ever heard say "oh crap, we have to many good CB's."

Al Harris is a good CB but when was the last time he actually had a season with no serious injures. I have a feeling that we're going to see Harris on decline this season. Couldn't hurt us grabbing Lito if his looking for a reasonable contract in the new uncapped year.

Marlin Jackson was also let go by Indy. I'd rather take a chance with him than Lito.

Out of all the players I have scanned through available.. I want Ryan Clark from the Steelers the most... I think he is the best fitting FA for the Packers on the market right now.

Unless some stud LT comes available... lol.

Clark is probably the second best Safety in this whole free agent class. Maybe the best.

According to twitter updates from NFL writers there are 7 teams showing an interest.

Clark would be great but when was the last time Ted Thompson started mixing it this early in free agency?
