NFL News: Packers agreed to terms with CB Charles Woodson

Packers agreed to terms with CB Charles Woodson, formerly of the Raiders, on a seven-year, $52 million contract.

He held out for more money, and he got it. The deal reportedly brings the former Heisman winner $10.5 million in the first year and $18.5 million in the first three. Woodson should take over for disappointing Ahmad Carroll as the Packers starting corner opposite Al Harris. Injuries the past two seasons have hindered Woodson's play, but on paper, Green Bay's secondary looks to be vastly improved.
