Ironman, that was probably the third or fourth best of your posts that I've ever read.... maybe the fifth.

I assume this was supposed to be funny because IMO its one of the worst posts I have read from IM -

Al Harris was a true hero; he worked his ass off to come back from a season ending injury and potentially career ending.

He was my favorite guy on the team- until CM came along ...

football might be a business but IMO its bad business to treat someone like this; a washed up player.

hats off to the man with the heart of a lion

Im usually not bitter but I hope he plays for a team the packers play and goes in for a pick 6

:pottytrain2: this is for Ted Thompson

Dulak, I'm with you on the Al Harris man crush, and I'm disappointed that he's not going to be back. But realistically he was losing a step before his injury and coming out of the injury he's not going to be faster, more likely to have lost another step.

If it doesn't work out for him with another team, I'd really like to see him back with the team in some capacity if he's not too bitter about getting cut.

I really dont know how he would compare to shields because havnt seen him play since his injury; I just remember watching underwood (the dude that everyone seemed to like last year and go; OMG he sucks) - ya he showed a bit of improvement this year until his injury ...

Be cool if he could of gotten some roll on our team even it was dime back; Im sure hed rather just play here then some other team.

Rock was first.. but posting the article.

http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/Agent-Miami-Dolphins-sign-Al-Harris.html

The Miami Dolphins have signed veteran cornerback Al Harris to a one-year deal, according to his agent, Jack Bechta.

Beside the Dolphins, other teams that were interested in pursuing Harris included the Minnesota Vikings, the Detroit Lions and the Houston Texans.

"Al is excited to be playing in his hometown," Bechta said. "He has intimated to me that he wants to play as long as he can. Hopefully, this is the beginning of a new road. He's eager to play right away and also eager to play for a few more years."

Harris, 35, was cut recently by the Green Bay Packers after beginning the season on the physically unable to perform list after rehabbing from a major knee injury.

A Pompano Beach, Fla., resident, Harris made the decision due to wanting to play in the AFC as well as geographical reasons.

Harris is up to speed physically and could square off with Randy Moss on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

Meanwhile, the Dolphins signed linebacker Eric Bakhtiari to the practice squad and cut linebacker Chris McCoy from the practice squad.

Harris's agent did well to make sure they played up the "wanting to play in the AFC" angle.. that will only help in his return to Green Bay for his induction into the Packer Hall of Fame.

Between the Seahawks return, the spleen, his gritty toughness and his demeanor.. he will make an excellent addition to the immortals of the honor.

I would have thought Harris would want to go to a team that's more likely to be in contention at the end of the year. But perhaps Miami offers him the best chance to play. I worry about him reaggravating the knee before the season is out, though.

I'm glad he got picked up... and I'm doubly glad he didn't sign with a team that we'll be playing soon. That'd be weird...

I wouldnt hate the Packers claiming Jason Allen, the CB that the Fins dropped to make room for Al, he has upside, former top 20 pick and really as I've seen this year he has played alright, depth never hurts

Ba da da, Ba dadada GO PACK GO

Martha Careful (15h) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (16h) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.

Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

TheKanataThrilla (3-May) : Packers decline 5th year option for Stokes

Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!

packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol
