    I remember him, he got himself onto 3 or 4 teams the year the Packers brought him in as a UDFA.

    Is Nick McDonald still in the league? I remember the Patriots releasing him.

    Ya, I started a thread about Draheim just a couple weeks ago, because of his "active" career:

    McDonald signed with the Browns this summer but hurt himself training on his own and is on their NFI list.

    A run got stuffed. Which in itself is amazing, considering that any DC worth his salt would be deploying a two-deep shell against Brohm's laser-like arm.

    I don't think anyone mentioned that So'Oto was cut in the last group (by the Eagles).

    Jamon Meredith goes from Bucs starter to former member of Bucs http://wp.me/p14QSB-9ysi
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    I've noticed that Packer retreads tend to get picked up a lot and then left by the side of the road, kind of like real retreads.

    DJ Smith and Chris Scott cut by Carolina. Scott was the huge (345#) guard the Packers had on PS a few years ago. Not sure if he ever made it to the regular roster.
    M.D. Jennings and Dale Moss (Packer UDRFA in 2012) was released by the Bears.
    Terrell Manning cut by the Giants.
    Alex Green and Caleb Schlauderaff cut by the Jets.
    Brandian Ross cut by the Raiders after being a starter for them last year.
    Victor Aiyewa cut by the Chargers.
    Patrick Lewis was cut by Seattle.

    Very, very sad to see MD Jennings go
    He kept his mouth shut (not that anyone would've listened), but it still reminded me of when Sharper went to the Vikings and bragged about how many INTs he'd get because he knew all the offenses' tendencies.

    Final cut means Colin Cole made the Panthers.

    He went from starting DT to inactive for us one year.

    An up and down guy if there ever was one.

    He was out of the NFL for a couple seasons, then came back to make the Panther roster

    Sounds like a true Packer.
