Packers' Barnett wants no part of being moved

Nick Barnett wanted to get something off his chest Tuesday afternoon. The Green Bay Packers middle linebacker - for now, anyway - does not want to move to another position.

I think the Packers should move Barnett and try Hodge out at the MLB spot, especially for the 1st couple preseason games to see what he's got. If after 2 weeks Hodge doesn't look so good move Barnett back to the middle and figure out the SOLB. Considering that Thompson says that the linebackers can be interchanged I don't see much of a problem here. No matter how this turns out I have a feeling that once Barnett's contract comes up he won't be around and if he is still the MLB when he is gone Hodge will take over. I'm excited to see the game this weekend to see Hodge in action, I missed the scrimmage and haven't made it to a practice this year.

Barnett just moved his mom and sister to g.b. so its not a forgone conclusion thats hes gone,but,if they move him out of m.l.b spot and put him out side,and with the hard feelings from his club,i think will drive him out.

but you have to do whats best for the team,and if its hodge at mlb. than do it.
