saw this thread coming a mile away.

 

yet somehow still willing to say.. bring him in for a look.. mostly likely a no sign.. but kick the tires a bit

I wonder when NFL contracts will go the way of Craigslist posts with "no tire kickers" clauses...

Unless it's a true stud, which will cost a lot money, I'd like the Falcons to stop signing 30+ y/o players...

Demeco is a topic worth posting.  He is a great ILB and a leader on every defense he has been on.  He is 31 but appears to have a lot left in his tank.  His release had more to do with the Eagle's change in defensive scheme than anything else.  They'll be sorry they let him go, IMO.

Scheme?  Scheme has nothing to do with it.  He's played in the 3-4 and the 4-3 in his career.

He was brought to Philly specifically to play the 4-3 when they when they were still basing out of that wide-9 front and thought all they needed was a competent middle linebacker to compensate for those interior gaps.

Scheme has nothing to do with it?  You have a team that is transitioning from a 3/4 to a 4/3.  That means you have one less MLB/ILB.
