The versatility that linebacker Brandon Chillar has shown in his first two seasons in Green Bay likely meant he would get some interest from other teams this offseason as an unrestricted free agent, but the sixth-year pro said he wasn't looking to go anywhere else.

That interest was mutual, as Chillar and the Packers agreed on a long-term contract extension earlier this week.

"It has a lot to do with how happy I am here," Chillar said. "I don't need to go searching for anything else out there when I have everything I need here. I'm happy it got done and I'm happy to be here. I like the organization, love the city, so I'm just happy overall that everything went the way it did."

Rest of Article.

I'm glad that he's happy to be staying in Green Bay. I thought it was interesting that he said he liked the city. That should quiet some of the talk about FA's not wanting to come to Green Bay because of the city.

I'm glad HE is glad! He seems to be a good player, and works hard.

I like that he is happy in Green Bay.
Woodson says he is also happy in Green Bay. I would hope that these guys would also be happy to go out and sell Green Bay to other players when it comes time to bring in free agents.

Nice to see players take a liking to the city. That is a great thing to have when trying to land free agents. What is there NOT to like about Green Bay.
I think the city is built for the older/more mature players such as Woodson and Chillar. They know their job and their life is to play football and Green Bay offers that.

The 23-26 crowd might have a harder time adjusting to a small town...especially when their teammates from college go to big-city teams.
Has Clay Matthews said anything about being in Green Bay? He just comes to mind since his two teammates are in bigger cities. Maluaga(sp)-Cincy and Cushing- Houston....just curious.

I haven't heard anything from Matthews, but I'm pretty sure he likes Green Bay. The guy just seems like a total football junkie. Green Bay is a great place for him. His dad played in Cleveland, which is not a whole lot warmer or more glamorous than Green Bay.

Clay was on Locker Room Live the other night and seemed to be happy that he ended up on Green Bay.
He seemed like he was into the whole Packer mistique.
Like was said previously he seemed like a football junkie who just wanted to play football.
Said he was going to the Hawks for Christmas.

It's funny because the only reason he came here in the first place was because we offered more money than Arizona. Goes to show that players might change their mind about Green Bay once they been here a while.
