Signing Woods forces Wesley Person to the IL.

This is an odd twist since Wesley Person was traded by Portland to the Hawks in the Rasheed Wallace trade. The idea was that the Hawks would waive Wesley so the Blazers could get him back. It didn't happen. Wesley eventually landed in Miami where he never has seemed to fit in. Now Portland waives Woods, Miami signs him, and Wesley ends up on the IL.

If Portland still has ideas of getting Person back, now may be a good time to start looking into it.
"...Person has fallen out of the rotation and could be dealt if a taker is found for his $1.6 million salary..."
