Odd move. Someone had to get released for Geronimo, and maybe they think Dial is better.

That's truly surprising, especially considering Jean Francois' salary became fully guaranteed last week with this move resulting in $1.6 million of dead money counting against the cap.

wonder if something happened we don't know about.

 

[mongoosev]

so the guy made 1.6 million doing nothing? nice!

maybe he wants to focus on his 25 dunkin' doughnuts franchises? weird!

Strange move, there must be a back story coming.

 

[Dantés]

They must like what they're seeing from Adams and Dial in practice and feel like 5 DL is enough when they're rarely playing more than 2 at any given time. But it sure seems like they've shorn a lot of DL talent off the roster recently. You hope it doesn't come back to bite them via injury.

There is speculation from Acme Packers that since the Packers obtained Dial they did not need RJF.

The Packers gave Ricky Jean Francois a $250,000 million signing bonus but are cutting him after playing just six snaps in the preseason opener. ESPN's Adam Schefter first reported the surprising news on Tuesday.

From ESPN. Easy money. I want some.

Two hundred fifty thousand million is quite a bit.

Makes sense

 

[Poppa San]

Adams must be ready to return.

Reported that the RJF move is not actually on the NFL transaction wire at this point.

Gunter is officially the cut to make room for Allison.

Ringo was let go by the Bengals but is subject to waiver claims. It's possible that RJF will only officially be cut if the Packers' claim on Ringo is successful.

Adams must be ready to return.

recovery time for his foot injury is probably around now. hopefully this young cat is good!

What on Earth? I just read Gunter got the boot as well.

LOLwe are all like chickens with their head cut off going back and forth between the two threads.

I just jumped on and hadn't noticed the other. Per the usual I'm late to the party... Ha!

 

[OldSchool101]

Adams must be ready to return.

I remembered this article when you said that. Very possible he is farther along than anticipated which would be a huge positive.

you're not alone, mate!

What's the upside in cutting Ricky Jean? He looked good in his spots so far. While I think they kept too many cb's it's hard to have too much depth at d line. Montravius Adams got hurt right away so it's virtually impossible for him to have made such an awesome impression in camp that the Packer brass couldn't wait to get him on the field and dump Ricky Jean. This is one of the wierdest moves in quite some time.

Thompson is probably on here laughing at our state of discombobulation. *tic*

there lies the confusion as he hurt himself the second day of camp. so I doubt he made that much of an impact. I could be wrong. however I think we are all surprised at this move. doesn't make any sense in depth perception or in regards to the contract. as cap pointed out!

edit: forgot about Dial. depth is ok so far?
