I’ve greatly enjoyed reading the column through the offseason, but I’m ready to stop reading about practice and player evaluations and start reading about games.
I’m ready to begin writing about games again. I don’t know what happened to cause such scrutiny of the 53rd roster spot this year, but I’ve never seen the sensitivity for final cuts as acute as it was this year. If you want those guys back, go get them. They usually remain available to the teams that released them. Does everyone understand the Packers got a compensatory pick for losing James Jones in free agency, and then got Jones back a year later? Now, the Packers have Jones and the pick. That should instill great confidence in the Packers’ personnel department and the team’s philosophy for managing its roster.
