DJ would be an asset just helping them with film study.

DJ needs to get his ass in here and coach the LB's, they need some serious Tutelage.

Will he live that long?.....will any of us?

This. X10000000

Think about this, though, Mr. gblowfish ... we need some-damn-body on defense telling dudes where to line up and what to watch for. A statue with those skills might actually help this defense against the run.

That's kind of how I feel. Won't be slower than Ragland. Even if he gets run over, Ragland can't tackle either. If he's causing the same problems Ragland did at the very least he can provide leadership out there. Worst case, we get lb depth and a guy who helps us scout a critical game vs Oakland.

DJ had his "quarterback of the defense" speech all warmed up and ready to go.

It's good stuff, too...

In a heartbeat. Clearly the players on this defense don't listen to the coaches(and maybe they shouldn't)but do listen to vet leaders(see Berry, Eric). At the least DJ could help get these idiots in correct positions

This is actually a pretty good analogy. I would take him over Zombo in a heartbeat (and he can't be much worse than Ragman).

Yep I remember.

DJ is done he is just to prideful to except that yet.

I'd sign him and let him backup the others until he's ready to coach. His presence alone would inspire the defense especially with Berry back.

It’s pretty clear that he’d just like the opportunity to go along for the ride. I’d sign him.

He can be a player, but primarily a coach for the starters. The entire defense obviously needs better coaching.
