I cringed when I read the Packers signed Akili Smith today. That was my first reaction and I don't have a good explaination for it. At least he was cheap, only $15,000 to sign instead of the $10 million the Bungles paid to sign him after they drafted him. I see him as a distraction and someone who can't help the team next year. He might be a quarterback for the future, but that future might not be as a Packer.
