March 29, 2014 By Bill Scott

After playing in just eight games with the Green Bay Packers last season, free agent DE C.J. Wilson has signed with the Oakland

Raiders.

Wilson gets a fresh start in Oakland after once playing as a starter in Green Bay.   Wilson’s most productive season came in 2012 when he had 24 tackles and 2.5 sacks in 11 games with the Packers.

The addition of Julius Peppers and the resigning of DL/LB Mike Neal helped make Wilson’s value to the Packers diminish even further.  The Packers also will count on Mike Daniels, Datone Jones, Jerel Worthy and Josh Boyd.

The Raiders also added another free agent on Friday, signing former Jacksonville Jaguars RB Maurice Jones-Drew to a three-year deal.

Green Bay Packer defensive lineman C.J. Wilson is expected to miss this Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings, but has full confidence in his teammates to step up in his place.

Wilson hurt his knee on the very first play of last week’s game against the Giants, but played another 13 snaps before sitting the rest of the game.

If Wilson cannot go, the Packers will miss the run stopper as they face the third best rushing team in the league, led by Adrian Peterson.  The physical Vikings team currently average 147.2 rushing yards per game.

Peterson has already gained 1,236 yards (5.8 ypc).  He’s surpassed 100 yards in each of his last 5-games.

Wilson becomes another defensive player that will miss, or looks doubtful to miss Sunday’s game.  Other names on that list include Clay Matthews, Sam Shields, and Charles Woodson.

The Packers looks to their younger defensive players this Sunday as they take on the Minnesota Vikings in an important NFC North match-up.
