Packers trade for LB BJ Goodson

The Packers have moved to address the interior linebacker position, trading for BJ Goodson formerly of the New York Giants.

After initially planning to waive him, the #Giants are trading LB BJ Goodson to the #Packers, per @TomPelissero and me.

Goodson is a thumper who is a tackling machine, though undoubtedly a bit of a liability in coverage. He does offer something on special teams.
