2007 Green Bay Packers

The 2007 Green Bay Packers season will be the franchise's 86th season.

Offseason
On February 2, 2007, Brett Favre announced that he will return for the 2007 season. "I am so excited about coming back," the 37-year-old quarterback said on the website of The Sun Herald in Biloxi, Mississippi. He also commented, "We have a good nucleus of young players. We were 8-8 last year, and that's encouraging."

Ted Thompson, Green Bay's general manager, confirmed the news, saying, "The Packers are excited by his decision and look forward to a successful 2007 campaign."

2007 NFL draft
The 2007 NFL Draft occurred on April 28-29. The Packers picked 16th overall, selecting defensive tackle Justin Harrell in the first round.

Reportedly, the Packers were in talks with Oakland Raiders wide receiver Randy Moss at the behest of Brett Favre. If the Packers had made the move to acquire the 30 year-old wide receiver, the trade would no doubt have been a controversial one, as Moss has a long and storied history with the Green Bay franchise. While Moss's salary is high, Green Bay has reportedly $24 million of cap space, and could have absorbed his contract easily. These rumors were put to an end on 29 April 2007, when Oakland dealt Moss to New England for a 4th round draft pick. In the days following the NFL draft, Favre was upset concerning Green Bay's inability to acquire Moss. Favre was reportedly so upset that his agent requested that the Packers trade him. Coach Mike McCarthy was able to calm Favre down over the phone, and Favre eventually admitted that while he wanted to win, he did not want to be traded in order to do so.

Departures
On March 5, the Texans signed running back Ahman Green to a contract.

On March 5, the Dolphins signed tight end David Martin to a contract.

On March 7, the Packers cut fullback William Henderson.
