Today's sign the Packers have given up on this season and are just hoping to draft Reggie Bush next spring...
The Packers signed free agent WR TACO WALLACE.
When you sign a guy named Taco to your roster and its not part of a publicity stunt or part of a marketing deal with Taco Bell, Taco John's, or Bravo Burrito you know your season is in trouble.
Let's take a quick glance at the Packers' injuries this year: #1 WR Javon Walker out for the year with torn ACL, #3 WR Robert Ferguson out a week or more with a sprained LCL #4 WR Terrence Murphy is out for the year with a neck injury. This leaves the Packers with #2 WR Donald Driver, #5 WR Antonio Chatman (5'9), and Taco Wallace catching Favre's passes.
#1 TE Bubba Franks is coming off of a strained MCL.
#1 RB Ahman Green is done for the year with a torn ACL, #2 RB Najeh Davenport is done for the year with a broken ankle. This leaves #3 RB Tony Fisher, who has 727 yards rushing total in 4 years with the Packers, as the starter.
The Packers intelligently decided not to make any effort to retain their two All-pro Guards, Franco Rivera and Mike Wahle, so we now have 7th round draft pick rookie Will Whittaker at RG and Adrian Klemm at LG who had 10 career starts in 5 years coming into this year.
Center Mike Flanagan is still recovering from hernia surgery and Tackles Mark Tauscher and Chad Clifton are nursing ankle injuries.
Basically the only un-injured Packer regular starter is 36 year old Brett Favre who spends half of each game running for his life and the other half learning the names of the guys around him.
Hopefully Favre comes back next year to take advantage of the Packers' struggles this year earning them the chance to draft Reggie Bush and maybe even having a full receiving corps to go with it!

Dusty,
You call yourself a Packers fan. Cmon son, it was Marco no Franco Riviera and Ahman has a torn thigh tendon not an ACL...
I was gonna call Martinka to make sure you were doing okay after a very rough weekend. I mean nothing like taking a spanking from me in fantasy football and then your Packers get a Beatdown from the lowly dysfunctional MN Viqueens.
