I would like this as a one year stop gap only. I like his tenacity and attitude and he is a good locker room player to teach young guys how it's done.

Nothing against James L but if you watched some of the Rams games last season, he played on one of the better D lines in all of football for 2015 yet managed to rank near the bottom of all LB's in the league. Not really fast, poor in coverage, bad in run defense.

"Teacher, good locker room guy, attitude" ... sounds eerily familiar to what we were praising #39 on last year. As some posters have already stated, there are better options out there in FA at the LB position.

Pass

He left without a contract and I hope that is the last we see of him.
