I am surprised by both moves. Reports about Tretter didn't sound at all encouraging just a few weeks ago.

Saw White slow to get up on Sunday. Didn't realize there was much to it.

Not sure if he'll be activated on Sunday, but it would be nice to not have to move Lang from RG to C if EDS goes down. I wouldn't expect too much though. You're talking about an undersized (at least for now) rookie who missed all of the offseason practices.

White, eh? That's too bad, he's made some catches for a #4/5 WR. That leaves just 4WRs on the roster, including Harper, who's NFL stats consist of...1 tackle.

Interesting. Tretter must be the G/C swing backup. Good for him to get some use out of this year.

So its Sherrod versus Newhouse for backup Tackle only.

I'm REALLY surprised that even though we've had what may be record numbers of injuries, I somehow still knew each player's name already when it was announced.

:-D

I dub Tuesday's "Random Packer Roster Move Day."

... and who has no experience at center at all.

Might mean nothing at all. Quarless was on the active roster for a few weeks after PUP last year, too; then went to IR when a roster spot was needed. Could just be an opportunity to work him in drills to see how he progresses.

Tretter goes 300, no? That is only barely undersized for C/G.

The story in JSO had him listed at 296 which is 11 pounds lighter than his listed weight when drafted. If the 296 is accurate, that's pretty light for these days. 307 would be reasonable for a rookie. Would his injury keep him out of the weight room enough that he would have lost weight since he was drafted?

An OL who LOSES weight when he's off his feet?

Never seen that before. Don't like it, get rid of him!!! :taunt:

It was his foot. He was able to work out upper body to a certain degree before the foot was healed. His legwork would have suffered until he started to get healthy.

I doubt Tretter is ready to be anyone's backup just yet. I suspect he'll not suit up on Sunday.
