Two things, one, I moved this because it was already posted, two, that's not a JSOnline article, it's a ESPNMilwaukee article by Jason Wilde. Please, drink your coffee before posting. 😛

I guess he didn't receive offers due to his age and prior injuries. I was thinking he had problems with the Oakland coaching staff. It was he and Mike that clashed. Looks like it was a the chip on his shoulders because he didn't want to play in GB.

I did see where he was calling out the Oakland coach back in 2003. Perhaps this was in the back of my mind. Not that I blame him. Team leaders have to lead.

I think with the competition upcoming at the safety position, the Packers shouldn't have to move Woodson to safety. If Woodson has to move to safety, that says something about Peprah, Jennings, Levine, McMillian and Richardson (UDFA signing, who I personally like).

Keep Woodson at CB.

I’ve heard all the reports about moving to safety and all this, but I don’t think there’s any more I can do on the football field than I already do. I think the only thing that would ever change is just the title, from being a corner to a safety. But I’m a football player. I can do anything on that football field and they can put me anywhere. And they know that. All the talk about, ‘Can he play safety?’ I kind of already play safety. So it wouldn’t be that big of a jump.

That last quote is right on. Woodson plays something like 5 or 6 positions on D. The only thing that would change would be the title.

Also, who steps up? If Casey Heyward and Sam Shields do, Woodson may play safety in the nickel rather than slot corner. If Anthony Levine emerges, Woodson is more likely to remain at corner regardless of the package.

He's got the right physical body type and size for it too. I believe they used him in that position to blitz quite a bit last year too.

Don't forget McMillian, although it's not smart to count on a rookie 4th rounder, who knows...maybe we get lucky.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
