In 2007, the Green Bay Packers quarterback play exceeded all expectations. Coming into the season, Brett Favre was thought to be on the downside of his career, but proved the pundits wrong, while Aaron Rodgers showed that he could play. Ingle Martin’s dismal preseason doomed his hopes of making the roster while Craig Nall came [...]

On Wednesday, February 20, 2008, the Packers made two significant roster moves. The team placed the franchise tag on defensive tackle Corey Williams after is breakout season, and released veteran tight end Bubba Franks after years of declining play.

Grant was acquired the week before the season opener against Philadelphia and helped boost a stagnant running game at midseason. Grant was inactive for the Philadelphia game, and through the first six games of 2007, [...]

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby was undoubtedly the Packers Rookie of the Year for the 2007 season. Crosby converted 31-of-39 field goals while making all 48 of his extra point attempts. Crosby twice made four field goals in a game and only had one game where he did not have an attempt, and only [...]

In an end of the season interview, Packers coach Mike McCarthy had this to say when asked if wanted to bring Corey Williams back:
