    But he's got two Superbowl rings in this defensive system. He adds depth, experience, and he isn't an expensive option. Nothing wrong with this signing.

    He's 35 I believe....not a bad pickup if you ask me. Good for 1 year and depth never hurts.

    Still I mean the pick has to be in the 7th round otherwise we really gave up a draft choice for Bobby Hamilton?

    yer well he stabilises the line and adds a little more experience so that possibly the line will be a little more dangerous and vilma wont have to be looking at so many blocks

    You can consider him not just a minor league player but a minor,minor league player. If he was so good & could help here & there why did we cut him in the 1st place a zillion years ago & why did the Pats also cut him? All these moves tell me that our DL even with all the media spin put out is in deep trouble. Why do we have to bring in players to "teach" when we pay asst coaches to do that?

    Also I did noit know our DL was so young & inexperienced that it needed steadying by a player we cut many moons ago. Lets see SE has now how many years in the league? DeW this is #4 I think. Kimo probably has 10 or more & having played so many years in the 3-4 if our other players need coaching & a player is going to do it then what the heck do we need the coaches for? .
