I wouldn't mind the team looking into him given our need at both ILB and Safety, who knows, maybe we can find a role for him somewhere.

I mean....if we couldn't find a use for Chinn in this defense, what are we going to do with TEMU Chinn?

If Chinn was on this defense right now, he'd probably be one of our starting ILB's this year

I hated that Evero refused to use him, but we're even more depleted at ILB right now than we were then, so I think it would be different.

No, he wouldn't. Chinn was here when we needed ILB's and he didn't use him for that. We had him as a reserve S.

He isn't "an Evero guy."

Ummm... The dude looked like he was about 180 pounds soaking wet with us (I don't care what his listed weight was/is) - he would have been destroyed in the run game even more than our current and past crappy ILBs.

The problem is we primarily play 3-4 or nickel/dime - there is little room on the field for him because he isnt an edge LB blitzer and he can't cover for crap. The only thing he can do kind of well is be an in-the-box safety that can try and beat blockers to the spot because of his athleticism. Washington was able to make him work last year because they used him solely as an in-the-box safety and almost exclusively ran a single high FS. The funny thing is they had good yards/game stats against the pass despite most of their secondary having embarrassingly low PFF grades. Washington was also terrible against the run, which might explain why they gave up so few yards passing.
