Woodson still unsigned

[Pugger]

Yes the ideal break for Charles Woodson would be a deal with the Broncos.

I still find it incredible Charles left Denver without signing a contract - if indeed they offered him one. if so Sir Charles is more interested in one last big pay day instead of a chance at another ring.

Manning gave him an endorsement:

PFT is breaking the news that Chuck ends up back in Oakland.

and it's not a one day retirement contract. His hope to play for a contender didn't pan out at all. I hope he doesn't embarrass himself this coming year. I wasn't so sure he was done when he was first released, but the lack of any interest whatsoever around the league told me that all the eyes that mattered thought he was.

For what it's worth, the fans there really wanted him

So much for the board condemnation and silly stats.

A part of me hopes C Woodson goes to sign in Denver, where he'd be a bit of a luxury, and then he goes and wins it all with Monte Ball
The wrong thing to do would be to sign with a somebody like the Raiders; he's not the player he once was and he won't win much if anything with the Raiders

You always root for players who leave the Packers. You bastard

Wow thats like getting signed by the Redskins...you know your career is over...

He just couldn't let it go. Too bad. Back in his time, he was great. At that time considered better, far better, than Starr. I don't know for certain what the historians think now, but Starr seems to have crept up in their view.

Wow, Reggie opened up the bank vault for him. Did he even have another offer? Its about $1.2 mil more than I thought he would get.

One year deal, $700,000 base, $1.3 salary and incentives that could total $2.3 million according to the agent.

Woodson recruitment in GB was very direct and honest. I was asked "Any black people live up there?" Said "Some, but not many."

I wonder how many FA visits (or non-visits) that sums up for Green Bay?

It is a total of $4.3 million. Shows the market was bigger for CW than some thought.

Tape does not lie.

Non issue since willie buchanon.

Perhaps not but you can still mis-interpret. 2.3 million of that is incentives and you have no idea if he will get them.

According to Spotrac the details are:
Base: 940k
Signing Bonus: 700k
LTBE Incentives: 160k
Cap hit: 1.8M
NLTBE Incentives: 2.5M

NLTBE stands for "Not Likely To Be Earned." The tape does not lie. He makes less than Jarrett Bush.
