The move means 2010 first-round draft pick Bryan Bulaga says at right tackle, where he filled in last season when Mark Tauscher went down with a shoulder injury.
TJ Lang and Nick McDonald are also possible candidates for the left guard spot. But the Packers threw the first opportunity to Sherrod. After Saturday night’s workout, Mike McCarthy said there’ll be plenty of chances to go around.
