I know another go out an sign him thread.. but if Manning Jr. hits the waiver wire.. I think he would be worth the look to add a little depth at CB..


"Profootball Weekly"Most daily Bears observers believe its only a matter of time before the team releases sixth-year CB Ricky Manning Jr.
including Manning himself. Recognizing the teams preference so far in training camp to give more practice time to youngsters Corey Graham, Trumaine McBride and Zackary Bowman at his expense, Manning confronted head coach Lovie Smith and defensive coordinator Bob Babich about his diminishing status after a recent practice, were told.

Thompson won't do it in my opinion. I would because I think Manning Jr is right away the 3rd best corner on our roster but I think the Packers are content with Williams and Lee as their 3rd and 4th corners respectively.

Blackmon is the 5th because of his return skills.

I doubt they keep 6 again this year so everyone worrying that Jarrett Bush is going to be on the team probably doesn't need to worry much.

I'd rather have some insurance at DL than CB but really you can never have enough at either of those positions.

Well actually if you can't fine depth on the defensive line then you better have a great secondary so you can create some coverage sacks. I think the Packers have a very good secondary with the potential to be great. A nickel back like Manning Jr would help that cause.
