Fantasy Impact:
This is good news for Packers fans. Brad Jones has clearly been a hole in the side of the linebacking core in Green Bay, but the Packers didn't have anyone really to replace him. This release signals that the Packers acknowledge what everyone saw, and that they plan to rectify it. Whether they are pleased with Jamari Lattimore, A.J. Hawk, Sam Barrington, and Clay Matthews remains to be seen, but the release means that ILB will be a priority in the offseason; whether to procure depth in the draft, find an instant starter in free agency, or both. The means doesn't matter yet, but the fact that they are clearly working on it can only be a positive sign.
