Jermichael Finley: What might the Green Bay Packers do?

I'm sure it helped his career that he came over to Green Bay and played with the likes of Reggie White, Sean Jones, Gilbert Brown and had Fritz Shurmur as his DC.
As for Raji, why should we expect any different performance that what we've been getting? Can he play 5 technique in a 3-4 and set the edge? Can he hold the point as a NT? Is he worth another shot, or would he be better served taking his talents elsewhere? Of course it could be Capers fault.
Wistful thinking!

He was known to have talent, but his career was clearly in decline for some reason. His sack and tackle numbers in 1995 were half what they had been in 1992. I see some parallels between Dotson's and Raji's situations. Both declining when they should have been in the prime of their careers. Because of that, if they can get Raji to sign for the money they've been talking about, I think it's a risk worth taking. The risk/reward ratio is pretty good for the Packers.Originally posted by red View Postyeah, i remember santana being a pretty big "get" at the time, i was younger, but i don't remember thinking we just signed some no talent stiff when we got himI can't run no more with that lawless crowd

I wonder what Reggie could have done with Ol' Cleedeeus.Originally posted by mraynrand View PostReggie White could just get other players to elevate their games. Except for Gabe Wilkins, of course.I can't run no more with that lawless crowd

santana didn't flat out quit on the bucs before he came to us though, did he?Originally posted by Joemailman View PostHe was known to have talent, but his career was clearly in decline for some reason.

I don't know. Do you? I know they weren't very happy with him, but I don't know what the exact issues were.Originally posted by red View Postsantana didn't flat out quit on the bucs before he came to us though, did he?I can't run no more with that lawless crowd

nope, thats why i asked. hence the question markOriginally posted by Joemailman View PostI don't know. Do you? I know they weren't very happy with him, but I don't know what the exact issues were.
he rebounded though with another team
i think IF, raji were to rebound his career, it needs to be somewhere else. as a packer fan i will not tolerate a player quitting, or giving half assed effort on the field. we needed him this year, and he mailed it in

Pete Carrol sent him to the team trainer for an injection in his neck. Suddenly Finley is healed (and having his brother pee in a cup for him).Originally posted by Brandon494 View Posthttp://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap200...attle-seahawks

Serious question: no way does he get football clearance before the season. So when would they sign him?Originally posted by Brandon494 View Posthttp://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap200...attle-seahawks
