Packers Grossly Overestimated Geronimo Allison’s Skills
Free agent Geronimo Allison has agreed to terms with the Detroit Lions. Not surprisingly, the deal is for the veteran’s minimum of $910,000, and he’ll get a $137,500 signing bonus, which gets him to just over $1 million.
For all of Allison’s four years in Green Bay I’ve been as charitable as I know how to be about the Packers’ attraction to this undrafted, non-athletic splinter of a man: 202 pounds (196 coming out of college) spread over a 6’3” frame. I’ve also, however, been brutally honest in repeatedly wondering aloud what the team saw in him.
