Packers Sign RB Ahman Green, Put RB DeShawn Wynn On IR

To help an offensive backfield ravaged with injuries, the Green Bay Packers dipped into their past on Wednesday, signing running back Ahman Green. Green, who has been out of the league since Feb. 10 when the Texans released him, replaces DeShawn Wynn, whose season is over after being placed on injured reserve with a knee injury. With 8,162 career rushing yards with the Packers, Green needs 46 more yards to surpass No. 1 Jim Taylor (8,207) and become the franchise’s all-time leading rusher.

wow. unheckin believable..


**********Automerged Doublepost**********

how much can he honestly have left in him?

 

so would he be a good pick up in FF or is he burnt out and wont do much good?

 

Dont. One hit and his knee will fail. He needs 47 yds to break the career rushing yd record in GB. I have a feeling this is somewhat of a last hurrah, so he can retire as a packer.

 

He's got nothing left. Maybe he'll give it one last shot because it's in Green Bay...lol...

 

He got 10 games left in the season to do it...

 

Our run defense - D'Qwell Jackson = good shot he breaks it this weekend.

 

This.

 

word

 

i'm not surprised, its the same blocking scheme that was in houston, no one has seen him play for a while the guy might have a game or two left in the tank. what i want to know is where is brandon jackson? and why did we keep wynn over sutton?

 

Let me guess - injured as usual

 

They had to do something, maybe it will light a fire under Grant's butt.

 

I dunno if Green is the right player to do so....

 

He can't be any worse, Grant is only averaging, what, 2 yards a carry?

 

Unbelievable.. They must feel pity for Green.

 

lol, but how many yards/cary will Green gain?

 

I know, im thinking the same thing. Sutton was the freaking man...

 

Maybe Sutton had the ability to stay healthy. That isn't what TT is looking for...

 

3.8YPC actually. Not setting the world alight, but he's not Larry Johnson bad.
