He did WHAT?

So Ted was a little busy today...per packers.com...
The Green Bay Packers have signed punter Derrick Frost and long snapper Brett Goode and released punter Jon Ryan and linebacker Abdul Hodge.
Now I ask, why release possibly the fifth or sixth best linebacker instead of Breno Giacomini, superbackup O-line or Tracy White, who can be replaced easily on special teams. Jon Ryan, who had a reat 34-yard run against the Titans demonstrating strong athletic ability, was released in favor for a punter who was released from the Redskins after getting beat out by a rookie. Ryan, who has shown B.J. Sander-esque inconsistency on occasion, has the potential to boot 50+ punts at any given time.

I'm Not Surprised
They had to cut someone to make room for a long snapper, and Abdul Hodge, I loved the guy, was the 6th or 8th linebacker with a history of injuries.
Jon Ryan had a big leg, but he had no control of it. Frost is no star, but I can see why they made the move.

Not surprised
Ryan has had some horrible games & Hodge has very little upside.
