    Happy news for Packers fans. It also says there that Harrels might take a little longer. </p>

    I think he was the most important of all thier draft picks to get into camp because he now has a chance to win the starting job in camp....he now may have some fantasy value as well

    This is good news. Though, I wonder, if they strike lightning twice w/ a Husker RB?

    I've been reading up more and more on this guy and he does have some good things. He seems like a high character guy and he's a perfect fit for out offense. My one worry is I don't have 100% faith in McCarthy and his staff. If a change were to be made down the road I think Jackson would end up more as a 3rd down back or 10 carry a game type of player. In the zone blocking scheme, he is a perfect fit. Glad to see is in camp on time.

    I really like Jackson, not sure if he is the answer at RB but he has some potential.

    Another sign is good for me!</p>

    Hopefully Harrell's bicep injury isn't so bad he can't hold a pen...
