I'd rather have McMichael for 3y/$11M. Maybe Alcorn or Humphrey develops into a good starter. I'd say it's a real longshot.

I believe that acquiring a CB is prudent because we lack depth here. A team cannot lack depth in this key position.Originally posted by CaliforniaCheezWoodson's deal has a big break in cost after 3 years.
I see it as a 3 year deal with a lot of back end costs that make it look large.
Woodson's deal is really a 3 year deal and his replacement has to be found this year or next or it begins to get expensive.
The deal is why so many keep saying the Packers need a CB in the draft.
We went into FA with Woodson and Harris at CB and little else.** Since 2006 3 X Pro Pickem' Champion; 4 X Runner-Up and 3 X 3rd place.

RE: Randy Moss:
''He may be a complete bust, but he also has the ability to give Favre a chance to break Mannings TD record, thats a chance I would be willing to take.'' LEWCWA
Favre will break (Marino's) TD record with or without Randy Moss if he plays in 2007.
My concern is that Favre may pull a surprize move and retire if he doesn't see more effort made by Ted Thompson to upgrade OUR 'O'.
He can't be pleased that Ahman Green is gone. Who would that please? Yet we must live with it as Packer fans but Brett Favre doesn't have to.
We are in a deeper hole talent wise on 'O', having one more need on offense than when 2006 ended.Is the answer at RB in the draft?
I'd feel happier if Ted Thompson made a deal that secured a proven RB like Julius Jones.** Since 2006 3 X Pro Pickem' Champion; 4 X Runner-Up and 3 X 3rd place.

They don't have any depth. At any position. They will have it at OL and LB if they continue to draft well and players develop.Originally posted by mngolf19Not to poke at anyone. Just asking an honest question. What positions do you feel the Packers have depth at? From my standpoint they have less depth than last year in general. And it sounds like others agree.

No, I don't think they have less depth than last year. Many of the guys that were backups last year are still backups, but have a year of experience. They've only lost Ahman and Martin. I don't think Martin was much of a loss. They have Rodgers and Moll. They have guys like Jolly, Hodge, Culver, Underwood, Blackmon, Humphrey, Alcorn, Pope, Beach. They'd just be silly to count on those guys. Until you finish FA and the draft, not many teams are going to have a ton of depth. To an outsider, Minnesota has little depth--except at RB and DL. I'm sure you are expecting some of the guys that others haven't heard about to step up, and you are expecting the draft to fill a lot of the depth.Originally posted by mngolf19Not to poke at anyone.

If we sign S Ken Hamlin and I hope that becomes a reality . We have depth at Safety with Collins,Manuel (Well ??),Underwood and Culver.
We just got a tad deeper at CB with OUR first FA signing in Frank White.The draft may help us there.
We are in trouble at LBer and TE (alot depends on Bubba rebounding).
We are in deep trouble at RB.
We are barely there at WR. I only see three in DD,Jennings and Martin.I hold no faith in Robert Ferguson.** Since 2006 3 X Pro Pickem' Champion; 4 X Runner-Up and 3 X 3rd place.

DL.......and........ah........nothing else
If TT decides to trade down continuously we still have plenty of holes to fill.TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

We aren't done signing guys. If Hodge is the player we thought we were getting in the draft, he could be good depth at LB. Taylor is serviceable--if he resigns. We could draft guys. Interior OL is filled with prospects. There isn't a lot at OT. We could have depth at WR if Moss is acquired or we draft a guy like Meachem. TE and RB stink. I wouldn't say we don't have depth at CB. Blackmon could be the man. Walker might help. DL depth is good. Safety depth is good--although I think we need a better starter."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great.

I noticed you used nearly 10 if's/could/should's in here
Only proven depth is at DL; hopefully the other depth develops or more is brought inTERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER
