Just wondering havent heard anything.
From packersnews.com:
Woodson, the former Oakland Raiders Pro Bowl cornerback, postponed his visit to the Packers from Thursday and today to early next week. The Packers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers appear to be the only teams pushing hard to sign him.

Hope they can get a deal done. He and Hawk would be great additions to the D.

Hey jpopp, that a pic of your dog in your avatar by any chance? Looks like a beauty.
From the lack of report, it looks like Thompson may have fucked up with the Woodson situation.
Although i would like to see woodson in green and gold, I really wasnt that optimistic. merely needed to remind myself who is the GM.
Either that or they don't want him mobbed at the airport and will announce something when there's something to announce.
Its more likely thompson refused to break the bank to sign Woodson. I think being cheap is tt's nature.Quote:

You just hate waiting.
Adam Schefter reported on NFL Total Access reported that Woodson was in town today and
"I have been told by reputable sources that GB has a very "serious" interest in signing Woodson to play cornerback."
(April 3, 2006) -- One way or another, it now looks like cornerback Charles Woodson is going to wind up by the Bay -- either Green Bay or Tampa Bay.
Woodson spent today visiting Green Bay. One Packers official said the team has a "significant interest" in signing the former Raiders cornerback. It should.
The Packers need another cornerback to start opposite Al Harris, and signing him would allow Green Bay to move its 2004 first-round pick Ahmad Carroll to nickel back.

Charles Woodson was named to four Pro Bowl squads early in his career, but recent injuries have given GMs pause.
Then there is this factor, which could well be the deciding factor in where Woodson winds up: The Packers still have a bushel of salary-cap room available, whereas Tampa Bay does not.
Green Bay's biggest offseason moves were re-signing defensive end Aaron Kampman and running back Ahman Green, but just as notable, the team also lost kicker Ryan Longwell and center Mike Flanagan.
An NFL executive believes the Packers are feeling the pressure of signing a high-profile productive free agent, and there just aren't many more out there. Woodson is one of the last men standing. His addition would be a boost to the Packers roster and Green Bay's morale, especially while it awaits Brett Favre's decision.
And no one knows when Favre finally will announce his decision, but the football world is almost assured of hearing something this week.
Favre is hosting his annual golf tournament April 6-9 in Tunica, Miss. Tunica could be just the town and time for Favre to say, as many Packers officials expect, that the quarterback would like to return for one more season -- his last. Favre is expected to attend his golf tournament, and Packers fans would like to know whether their quarterback can be expected in Green Bay.
