Going back to 2006 you get the following:

Sage Rosenfels: Washington, Miami
Jameel Cook: Tampa Bay
Vonta Leeck: Green Bay
Kevin Walter: Cincannati
Jeb Putzier: Denver
Mike Flanagan: Green Bay
Ephraim Salaam: Atlanta, Denver, Jacksonville
Chris White: Green Bay
Earl Cochran: Green Bay (was a street FA, having last played in 03)
N. D. Kalu: Philadelphi, Washington
Anthony Weaver: Baltimore
Dexter Wynn: Philadelphia
Scott Jackson: Tampa Bay
Cedric Killings: San Fransico, Carolina, Minnesota, Washington
Roc Alexander: Denver
Jason Horton: Green Bay
Anthony Maddox: Jacksonville
Samkon Gado: Green Bay
I think that in the 06 off-season you could voice a concern over the amount of players coming n from Green Bay and Denver, but if you look at the amount of turnover there has been on the roster since then it's only prudent that the coaches bring in a few people they are familiar with. Since the 07 off season this trend has diminished considerable. And it's not like all the signings from Denver and Green bay have been poor signings, in fact some have been pretty damn good.
If yo look closely there are also a afew other teams whose names appear nearly as much as Green Bay and Denver.
I think this Green Bay/Denver at one time might have been true; but the fact that it keeps coming up is because we fans keep bringing it up,not because it is still happening.
