McDonald's light fading?

Boy, Wells turned out to be a damn good Packer. 7 years so far. 94 games started. If he's resigned, he has a chance at 2 or 3 more seasons (if Clifton and Tausch can't go past 33/34, I'd guess Wells won't either.


But another 3 years, 40 starts or so. . . . It would be about 130 starts as a Packer. Pretty good career. We can start to include him in the 7th round gem category for recent Packers.

Disappointing.

Wells is in the final year of his contract. Packers need to find a center in the 2012 draft.

Maybe they think Genus is that guy.

Good thought.

McDonalds light was not just fading, it is now totally extinguished since he wasn't even brought back to the practice squad.

Bedard is reporting that the Patriots have signed him to their practice squad, and Bedard takes a swipe at Campen in doing so:

TT's new brilliant strategy. He knows that Campen blows, but MM won't replace him so TT lets his good OL prospects go to another teams practice squad for coaching. When they are ready he signs them to our 53....sheer brilliance.

do bedard and campen have some sort of history?

Ewww! If they do I don't want to know.

Clifton is already 35. If Wells can stay healthy into his 30's, which Tauscher could not, I could see him being around for a while.

Patriots released McDonald from their practice squad on Thursday.

[Fritz]

Any context for this? Did they need a spot because of injury and a new signing? Or did he just suck?

Is Campen vindicated?

wow, how the mighty have fallen. He goes from a Harlan Huckleby endorsement to the unemployment line in one month.

No, to paraphrase Leo Durocher, Campen screwed McDonald up so bad that not even the Patriots can fix him.

Please elaborate on Campen? What specifically did he do McDonald?

[smuggler]

Stranger danger!!

Statistically correlation does not equal causation, but still...

Since McDonald ended up playing like a dog, you could say Campen screwed the pooch.

I think McDonald's fine. I had it for lunch. Still the best fries around.
