Well, I guess that means my prediction that Cardia Jackson would end up being this year's undrafted-FA amazing story.

I have to eat crow on Harrell and Quinn Johnson. I thought Harrell made it. My guess is it came down to an extra QB or two FBs and they went with the FB. Also, five TEs. It really happened. I still cannot wrap my brain around it. 🤣

I'm really surprised they are giving up on Harrell. Why invest so much time into him and not keep him. Looks like keeping 5 TEs is a real possibility. Graham looked pretty good all year. I guess we'll have to get a new back up QB once Flynn leaves next offseason.

I'm on board keeping only 2 qbs. Keeping 3 qbs doesn't make any sense. Its a waste of a roster spot.

Apparently, MM and Ted Thompson agree he will not be the #2 QB of the future. Better to get rid of him now than waste more time on a guy they don't believe in. With this in mind, I do not mind this move.

They also put time into other players on the team...

And I've been wanting to get a QB with more upside in the draft for a while now. I wanted QB Tyrod Taylor this year when he dropped in the draft. Sound like he was doing good for a rookie until he got injured. Packers picked Caleb Schlauderaff right before Taylor was picked.

So 8 more guys need to be cut? ... and they haven't cut a TE or RB as of yet... and very few FB, LB and CB... so those are probably where the cuts will come from.... right?

Harrell has not been through a QB camp yet.
I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and suggest that if the Packers didn't think they could land him on the practice squad, they wouldn't have cut him. I think they take the risk because they probably feel they can use a draft pick on a QB next year that will be just as good as Graham Harrell.

No trades yet. I guarantee TT's on the phone.
