Hey, he is on the Omaha Nighthawks team and they play next week.

Better sit him out and ship him North

We would have to play Maurice Clarett then.

Willie Parker comes to mind as a back that is out there.

Packers were pleased with Jackson's performance in camp, but they still need to go out and get some veteran depth if they can.

It wouldn't surprise me if they go back and pick up Ahman Green. He's way past his prime but is playing in the UFL currently. He'd make a decent backup and knows the system.

He would only be available for the final 5 regular season games plus the playoffs. UFL players are off-limits until their season is complete at the end of November.

I for one am not jumping off a cliff to pickup Brandon Jackson. Dude has 689 career rushing yards in 3 NFL seasons.

My guess is the Pack look at bringing Willie Parker in for a tryout.

Dude only has 175 career carries, good enough for a 3.9 average. Can't ignore his 69 receptions for 514 yards (7.4 average) either. Can't throw him under the bus for that.

Willie Parker is dried up. Shanahan knows his running backs. If he cut him...there is nothing that can be done with him.

A 3.9 average is nothing to write home about, especially when Grant's career average 4.4 yards/carry.
