[QUOTE="TJV, post: 556842, member: 4300"] Before the 2012 draft, there was talk about the Packers selecting Shea McClellin with their first round pick. Of course the Bears took him with pick #19 so the Packers never got the chance. McClellin has been a disappointment in Chicago and the Bears are switching him from DE to LB. According to some on Bears radio, this is his “last” chance. Interesting to me that both would have probably fared better if McClellin had gone to the Packers and Perry to the Bears (and Rodgers would have fared better last season). Sacks aren't the end-all stat but as a comparison McClellin recorded 6.5 sacks in 28 regular season games while Perry has recorded 6 sacks in 17 games and has 3 forced fumbles to his credit to none for McClellin. But IMO we should keep in mind Perry is only going into his third season and because of injury he’s only played about one season’s worth of regular season games (17). The acquisition of Peppers may reduce his chances for snaps and I see Neal as ahead of him as well (how fans lump Neal and Perry together in a negative way is beyond me). If where Clay lines up is much more varied than it’s been in the past, that could help Perry see snaps. I have a higher opinion of Perry’s ability than some, but he has to turn those flashes we've seen into consistent performance and, of course, avoid injury. Perry's been around long enough now that I won't buy the 'more comfortable on the right side' excuse. [/QUOTE]
