[QUOTE="Cardsmc25, post: 271703, member: 2028"] I found this little rumor on Prosportsdaily.com. I'd like to just state that I don't see anyway this happens, but I wanted to see how people felt about this guy. As for me, I think Merriman is a bit of a headcase. He is talented, but I don't think he is a Packer. _____________________________________________________________ [B]Merriman to join Fitz in AZ?[/B] [B]9:15AM ET[/B] [B]Shawne Merriman | [COLOR=navy]Chargers[/COLOR] | Interested: [COLOR=darkred]Cardinals[/COLOR]?, [COLOR=teal]Dolphins[/COLOR]?, [COLOR=darkgreen]Packers[/COLOR]?, [COLOR=red]Patriots[/COLOR]?, [COLOR=darkred]49ers[/COLOR]?[/B] [I]We've been regarding the offseason saga of Chargers LB Shawne Merriman as an intriguing case.
