Packers meet with Lavar

[Giantone]

Just tring to keep all on 1 thread ,here is an update guys .


"
- LB Chase Blackburn is finally saying he’s at 100%. Word is that he might be tried at SLB this coming season, as well as serving as back-up MLB. (From CBS)
- Despite ongoing negotiations with the Packers and Dolphins, CBS still has an “underlying suspicion” that free agent LB Lavar Arrington will sign with the New York Giants. Here is the blurb from Sportsline:

All is quiet on the LaVar Arrington front, as the Giants appear to have removed themselves from the bidding for the former Redskins linebacker. His financial demands were too high and already turned off Cincinnati, Cleveland and Miami. The Giants made an offer, which he refused and which they recently took off the table. Arrington was negotiating with Green Bay most recently, but the underlying suspicion is that he’ll sign with the Giants when his demands and the Giants’ offer get a lot closer.

- Here is another interesting blurb on Lavar Arrington and the LB situation for the Giants. This time from ESPN:

‘Back(ers) to the future: The Green Bay Packers and New York Giants both entertained unrestricted free agent LaVar Arrington, but neither has signed the former Washington Redskins star and three-time Pro Bowl performer. The other thing the two clubs have in common is a perilously thin linebacker depth chart. Both teams are going to land a linebacker, maybe even more than one, on draft weekend."
