Percy Harvin plans to train in Florida with Packers CB Charles Woodson this offseason

If Woodson has his heart in the right place he will teach Harvin everything wrong.

"So, just as you are going into your break on the route you point in the direction you are going to go, it's a balance thing. Then as the ball comes towards you, back up quickly to give yourself more time to make the catch. And remember what we worked on earlier, if you make the catch always go down immediately."

Well, Woodson will be a better role model than Moss. But interesting that Harvin seems to be easily influenced and is yearning for guidance. Maybe Woodson can also work with Harvin on meditation techniques and get rid of those migraines (with a hypnotic suggestion that they only return when playing the Packers).

I hear that Florida herb is quite good for migraines.

If he has migraines and marijuana helps them, he can have it.

If he has migraines and plays with them somehow, he's one tough mother.

OK?

Maybe Woodson can convince Harvin that he should come to Green Bay when he is a free agent. It's stuff like this that will make GB an attractive place for outside free agents, if TT decides he ever wants to sign one.

I agree with that.

I'm just poking fun at Harvin's development as a diva, an area in which Favre has mentored him quite well.

He would be a great KO return man.

That would be interesting. Usually Minnesota is where old Packers players go, not the other way around.

I suspect we will see a net outflow of talent from Minny in the coming months

Even making a joke about a debunked meme won't make it true.

Now that they've made Frazier full-time, it's time to blow up and rebuild in Minne-ha-ha.

I realize this is way of the world in the NFL now but what would Ray Nitschke think about Herb Adderly training with Bob Hayes in the offseason?

I see nothing wrong with it. Aaron Rodgers and Drew Brees train together in the offseason.

I don't have a problem either, just wonder what the old timers would have thought of that "back in the day..."

Percy Harvin is the type of FA that TT would go after.

• On the right side of 30
  
• Prime years left on career

The biggest question is his demeanor or how he fits in the Packer locker room.

I can't see how the Vikings would let Harvin (once he is a FA) go even if they are rebuilding.

Great point. The Bears & Packers players talked about how much respect they have for each other & it shows when they workout in the off season together. People don't view Green Bay as the "Siberia" of the NFL anymore. It hasn't been that way for some time probably due to the fact we are consistently competitive year in & year out.

He is going to break the bank...no way TT goes after a big money FA with a long-term deal...which is what Percy will get if he continues at this pace.

Really interesting to see todays NFL vs even the 90's when the Packers won a SB. Those days you would have never heard of this. In the 60's? damn Lombardi probably kicks you off the team for helping any rival player.

Woody isnt alone though.

Jennings, Larry Fitz, Asanti Samuel, and Revis (among others) do the same thing. It just makes all of them better.

Aaron Rodgers Philip Rivers and I want to say Brees also train in the off season with each other and defensive players as well.

Paging *cough* James Jones *cough*.....

How about Cutler laughing after the loss and yukkin' it up about the sacks and ints?

What would Halas say about that?

He would be wondering what the hell training is. Those guys did not do off-season work outs. They simply showed up to camp and did 2adays to get into shape.

The vast majority of football players up until the late 60s all had off-season jobs--as insurance salesmen, car salesmen, teachers...real freaking work.

Right on ON

And many used training camp to get into shape. They showed up totally out of shape and hadn't done virtually anything in the off season

Who cares.

Right. Because he's never done that before with Pickett or Woodson.

Woodson I may agree...although he was viewed as a malcontent and maybe on the short end of his career...a wonderful signing. Ryan Pickett? Not sure that was ever considered a so-called "marquee" FA signing. Back page stuff. Brandon Chillar-like. But a great signing.

Percy Harvin. Offensive rookie of the year. Awesome kick returner, slot receiver...good running option...different ball game...

My point is Harvin, on his current pace, will command BIG TIME dough, not what TT does...and I agree with.

cough * migraines* cough

Hope it's more crafty vet playing young guy for a fool with Woodson wanting to get an extended look at Percy. Not a big fan of all these players in the division being friendly in the offseason. Woodson's going to help Harvin fix the weak spots in his game? Are you kidding me?
