    and Justin Beaver from Whitewater. Beaver had a tryout with the Packers, as I recall, but I don't think he was signed for training camp.

    Silverstein suggests that Packers will most likely try to get Callahan on practice squad if Hundley is healthy. But, "even if Hundley is ready to play Week 1 against Jacksonville, the Packers will have a tough decision to make with Callahan."

    Big Mike says "small school, schmall school":
    “I think Joe Callahan’s a great example of it’s not really where you start, it’s where you finish,” coach Mike McCarthy said Monday morning. “I understand his background, but Joe’s a hell of a football player.

    “He was extremely productive in his college career and he’s really, if you go back to the OTAs, he’s improved every step of the way. It’s just like anything; can guys absorb the information and apply it on the field? His application part of it really relates and definitely shows you what kind of football player he is.”

    McCarthy said he has treated Callahan no different than he would Rodgers and Hundley in the exhibition games. He is expected to run the same plays and make the same adjustments the two veterans are asked to make.
