Definately bring him in and kick the tires. He will have trouble with coverage but a DEFINATE upgrade for back-up player. What ever his vet minimum is I'd add just a little insentive to it. He is a professional but we would need to see what's left in the tank. All systems GO and yes give him a shot !!!!!
They need to add depth to the position and at the very least you'd think Timmons could be a stopgap until a young linebacker is ready. He probably should have taken the Steelers offer last year.
I don't know what the cost will be, but this is about it. They need someone better than Spence as a temporary starter/backup. I also don't see them signing any of the top available options.
Why would we want to bring him back when the position he played is covered. It's Shazier's Mack position that needs help. not the Buck that Timmons played.
he sure could tackle better than spence (with about the same speed probably) and dirty red. I'd like him as the 4th ILB, a backup to Vince or even the 2nd ILB in short yardage situation
