Where Do You Expect Charles Woodson To Line Up? 

I missed this post on Green Bay Packers CB Charles Woodson from over the weekend, which primarily is a comparison between Woodson and CB Nnamdi Asomugha, but I was interested in the percentage of snaps Woodson played at various positions. I don't track plays myself to swear that they're right, but it looks about right to me.

From Pro Football Focus:  Woodson barely played any at right cornerback, 327 snaps on the left side, 540 in the slot, and 97 at safety.

They like to blitz him from the spot. His job is to get in there and force the QB to move off that "spot." Or sack him if he stays there.

I don't know if it was injuries or what but Woodson at CB didn't look like the normal Woodson from years past... looked a tad slower and not as quick and didn't take chances or play mind games with the QB nearly as often. Looked like a very different guys at CB last season to me. But in the slot... looked like the normal Woodson.

My guess is they will line Charles up in or near the slot. Let some of the youngsters take more of an active role in cornerbacking and let Chrarles do what Charles does best....use his instincts.

We are sooooo lucky to have Woodson. I hope he enters the Hall a Packer.

I think Woodson's versatility is on a different plane than most other corners..

Slot is where he truly belongs the majority because he can use the physical tools more effectively inside.. on the edge, sorry to say, Woodson of now gambles a bit to much to allow him to plunk him out there and expect him to "shut" it down.. he will "bait" at times and at times gets burned out there in recovery. He can't recover like he used to.. but his mind is still in that mode.. basically outside is more of a speed based game, on most plays the angles are tight and there is not much room for being a step late.

In the slot, he is using his experience more to make up in any step he may be missing and can use the angles more to his advantage.. still gambles. but can use larger angles to assist.

One hell of a player.. very intelligent.. and they are trying to maximize the returns on his efforts and current skill set.
