Cullen Jenkins Doesn’t Want To Make A Scene; Makes A Scene
Oct 2nd
Green Bay Packers defensive end Cullen Jenkins is not the kind of guy who makes a scene… unless he wants a new contract. Ah yes, it’s that time of year. Or at least it’s that time of year for Jenkins — the season of discontent. Jenkins is in the final year of his contract and [...]

Hi, I’m C.J. Wilson And I’m Pissed!
May 10th
I can’t recall a time when a seventh-round draft pick has been this pissed off, but Green Bay Packers’ seventh-round draft pick C.J. Wilson feels a little slighted. Wilson had delusions of grandeur entering the NFL Draft, thinking he would be drafted in the fourth or fifth round. I’ve seen at least one prognosticator who [...]
The End Of The Cullen Jenkins Era Approaches
May 7th
Cullen Jenkins has been a pretty solid performer for the Green Bay Packers over the years.

In his previous seasons, when [...]

The Green Bay Packers’ final selection in the NFL Draft (No. 230) followed the same logic as most of the team’s other picks since the first round – that is to say, no logic existed.
