Exactly one year ago today, I published an article for PackersTalk.com titled "Does Emanuel Wilson Have a Shot at the Final Roster?" After a few weeks of Training Camp practices and a preseason match-up against the Cincinnati Bengals in which he ran for 111 yards on six carries and scored two touchdowns, Wilson was instantly a favorite of mine to make the final 53. There were still two preseason games left and a few more camp practices, but I was convinced that a roster spot was his to lose. And come roster cuts day, it was official, Emanuel Wilson had made the Packers' final roster.
