Everybody is always talking abou fast. Sur eit would be nice to have a guy like Urlacher in his prime but those guys are rare. Has everyone forgotten we basically had a track-team under Haslett but that very few of them guys could play football on an NFL level?

But we'll never get there re-signing other teams retreads, particularly on defense, all the time because it's the safe move...

We had safe under Mora, and that get's you an early exit in the playoffs...

Well, 2009 our 3 LB's were Vilma 27, Fujita 30 and Shanle 30 and all were from another team with only Vilma being a starter before. So I wouldn't say we can't get there signing other teams retreads. It just depends on how much rubber is left.

And we had the ultimate cast-offs in Drew Brees and Darren Shraper,

Not so much fast but instinctive. If you watch some of his tape and isolate Dqwell's tackles, he reacts FAST and is very physical. Same goes for the LB's in Carolina and Seattle.
