outside linebacker depth was a concern, so it was a good move.

Swarmin' Mormon vs. The Pillar of Chillar
That's going to be a great battle to keep track of during training camp and pre-season.
Is that 3 FA signings and a re-signing this year so far?
This offseason is going well so far.
but it had been a relatively quiet off-season outside of Brett retiring and the Corey Willaims trade until we signed Chillar today.
I have a hunch you can bet the Packers add a #2 QB and I've been reading they like Kris Wilson so he might be in play too. I think GB is quietly having a quality off season outside for Favre retiring.

Chillar is the only UFA we've brought in so far that wasn't on the team last year. These are in essense the moves (and non-moves) that have affected the Packers so far in FA:
- Sent franchise tagged Corey Willams to Cleveland for their 2008 2nd round draft pick (#56 overall)
- Cut TE Bubba Franks
- Cut WR Carlyle Holiday
- Brett Favre retired
- Lost UFA CB Frank Walker to Baltimore with an over-paid 2-year, $3.5 million deal
- Slapped RFA DT Colin Cole with a second round, $1.4 million tender
- Signed waived OG Joe Toledo from Miami
- Re-signed UFA LB Tracy White to a 2 year, $1.8 million deal
- Signed UFA LB Brandon Chillar from St. Louis for a 2 year, $5.2 million deal
Now, this doesn't include all the players we've brought in for visits and what not, but it had been a relatively quiet off-season outside of Brett retiring and the Corey Willaims trade until we signed Chillar today.

Agreed, that's what I like to hear."I think ultimately at the end of the day he could have had the ability to get more money elsewhere," Ivler said. "But he was comfortable with what Green Bay had to say and he realizes it's a winning program and a great organization and he wants a chance at the Super Bowl.
"I think that of all the teams that were talking to him when we got down to the nitty gritty, the Packers have the best shot at that. He wants to be on a competitive, winning team. That was absolutely a big thing."
Love it.

Who is this Kris Wilson guy?

TE from the Chiefs. They used him more as a FB though but he was a TE in college at I believe Pittsburgh. I think he was a 4th round pick. McCarthy likes his TE to be able to line up at FB on occasion so he would have experience at that. I think as a #2 he'd be nice but he's not going to push Donald Lee for the starting job. They'd have to look via trade or draft for that.

Signed waived OG Joe Toledo from Miami
If he was waived, doesn't that make him a Free Agent?
Thanks for all not rushing in to help answer... geesh

Mr. Rain was just stating where he was waived from i believe.
Being waived is a team terminating the players contract.
