Saints released him today. Would you take him back? If healthy, he would probably be our best pass rushing threat.

He returned to practice this week, so it may at least be worth exploring. Or maybe just wait for the next wave of cuts for better options

No thanks. We've already cut him once. He's not a piece we'd want around to build on, so let's just ride out the storm in this shitbucket we've built for ourselves. Cutting a guy that might get us one sack for a guy that might get us two isn't going to mean jack in the long run.

We didn't cut him, he left via free agency because the Saints were giving him an opportunity to start and decent money. Dallas couldn't compete with those things.

Either or. He left, we didn't make much of an effort to keep him. They cut him.

Bye.

Not interested.

Can he even play in a 4-3?
He was a rush end at Oregon State.

His injury situation bothers me more than the scheme fit.

I don't think he's healthy. And I doubt the Saints would have flushed him if he was.

Always defer to the smarter organization.

I said it in the cuts thread...I would bring him in without hesitation. At this point you take a look at all possibilities.

Yeah it's worth a look. Can't hurt.

The need is dire at LB, so sure. I'd be more interested to see what shakes loose after cuts to the final 53.

The cut did save them a decent little chunk of change against the cap. I think that was part of the move as well. Whoever signs him now would likely be getting him for the veteran minimum.

No doubt. It costs you nothing but a little bit of time. Make some effort to right the wrong that you have created.

If he isn't fully healthy I want nothing to do with him. I'm sick of the injured guys, we need someone who can contribute now. The only way to find that out is to at least bring him in for a look.
