Problems, indeed. What was a solid rotation of defensive linemen has been reduced to more of a question mark for the Packers. Looks like maybe Ted Thompson may have outsmarted himself this time. I understand the trade of Corey Williams because the Packers got good value in return. But Justin Harrell has always been a question mark from day one and what can be said about the stupidity of Johnny Jolly? Seriously, getting caught with 200 grams of codeine? He’s going to lucky if he doesn’t end up serving some kind of jail time unless he pulls a Nick Kaczur.

The Packers won’t regret trading Cirey Williams. They’ll regret not trading Johnny Jolly and drafting Justin Harrell.
