Lerentee McCray leaves Broncos, signs with Green Bay Packers

Signed with the Packers.

I wish him well - He gets the handshake.

Loved his potential a few years back, but he never really put it together

Good luck

This. McCray was a guy at Florida who couldn't hack it at LB, but once they moved him to DE he was a very good player, figured he could be pretty good in a 3-4 sorta like what Shaq Barrett is giving us now, but he just never really did it. I wish him well. He can play in this league.

his Run stop was alright ,pass rush not so great .

Like DC said he will be playing a wile he is at least severable

McCray also didn't stand out on special teams enough to be a "depth" LB. Just a guy that didn't show he could start of stand out on special teams but can be a backup.

and it is fitting (yet understandable) that Mingo spelled his name wrong. Ill give him a pass on this one. It is a tough one.

Nope. Can't say I ever saw him make many splashes on ST's or heard anyone say.." he's a real good ST guy " either.He had that couple good preseason games before he got hurt that caught a lot people's attention and then when he got back, he was just serviceable for most part. Too bad. I was one of those that thought he could make some noise.

He was a key special teams player with the Broncos but also was injured a lot.

All those injuries slowed his development.

That happens to men as they get older.

I plead guilty to the crime of mis-spelling Lerentee's name.

Too late Mingo. You were already tried,convicted and sentenced to life in DC institute for criminal mis-spelling. I already got a bunk there.

That's good company - it might start a thing.

There's definitely no lack of future candidates with Warden DC overlooking potential violators on here. .

More like "The Soup Nazi" for me.

However sloppy I am about it - I do think I owe the guy - a good attempt to get it right. So ultimately DC's shaming of me over the years - only propels me to spell better in my all around posting game and I count that a good thing.

I have a unusual last name and compound that time stopper - with a pronunciation involving an explanation about the Schwa O sound that goes like this:

In English, schwa is the most common vowel sound.[5] It is a reduced vowel in many unstressed syllables, especially if syllabic consonants are not used.

It also depends on what dialect you're speaking.

DC has the same problem with plain language that I have with spelling player names.
