Somewhere between LET'S GOOOOO and let's see

Don’t like seeing shoulder injuries on defenders. Short was never the same and we wasted a ton of money.

He also clearly hasn’t been as effective the last few years compared to his earlier years. There’s a reason the Falcons let him go at 27 and Cleveland didn’t try to resign him at 28. He’s not old so hopefully this is a prove it contract for him to show he still has it for one more extension.

Chinn coming off the bench? If that’s the case (and I don’t believe it is) better off trading him before his value gets any lower.

Injuries and age have made sure he's not the same player anymore. I wouldn't be surprised if doesn't make the roster.

That was going to happen ever since the day we signed Bell. Also, Im not entirely sure we move Luvu out to OLB considering thats basically making him a 4-3 DE which he isnt, but we will see.

I don't think we have another Mike besides Shaq and even then that's not his best fit, good stop gap or at worst camp body.

I hope he turns out better than just about every other ex-Falcon player we've sign.  They pretty much all have sucked for us.

Shaq and Luvu backed up by combinations of KGH, Chinn, Dion and hopefully Brandon finally gets it. I like it.  That's a fast ball hawking ILB crew. 

I also like the LaByron Ray pick up. I actually liked him out of college where he did pretty well.  The scheme fit wasn't quite there then though.  I thought  he could play some DT and LE in the 4-3 we were running. 

All in all I'm loving the moves.

This allows Luvu to play Edge

[Jackie Lee]

Mike Kaye called it

Good signing.

That would just be the base defense.  You would still see a LOT of Chinn on the field.
