Fackrell = waste of a roster spot. This year's Jerel Worthy.

Got to disagree on the comparison here YA, I don't recall Worthy being given as much meaningful playing time without earning it like Fackrell this season.

I think a better comparator is Jerron McMillian.

Like Fackrelll, McMillian was draft pick (3rd round Fackrell, 4th McMillian) who did very little as a rookie.

In their second seasons, Fackrell was elevated to replace Julius Peppers who was allowed to walk this season, just like McMillian who replaced Charles Woodson after he departed to Oakland without an offer from the Pack (in 2013).

I also seem to recall McMillian was released not long after he was absolutely lost playing in a prevent defense against the Ravens in his second season.

With Biegel and Brooks getting healthy and up to speed, this Sunday's game against Baltimore might also result in Fackrell's banishment.
