Yeah yeah, Patriots bias.

No, he's not a pass-rusher by trade (though he'd arguably instantly become our best pass rushing threat, sadly), but we're also in dire need of ILB help, specifically in terms of coverage and run-stopping, where he's an absolute weapon.

We're not supposed to splurge in free agency, I realize, and he'll likely be given a fairly massive contract, but I do believe it'd be worth it to bring in a guy that'd be a leader for our defense and really shore up a position of desperate need.

it pretty much never fails

why do you even post here
