This is a cool story....offering him a one year contract to play this year if he can get let out 2 months early...
He was a Millen pick in a late round, so he's got that "not going" for him, but he was a really popular story and I think it will be worth seeing what he can do in camp.
The story is on Mlive

Nice
He is a hard worker who if nothing else will provide solid depth and leadership on special teams along side Follett
Awesome
Be even better if he could play corner.. but otherwise great news.

I say good luck and i hope he gets his appeal. I hope he helps us. I know he will bring a good work ethic, leadership and a positive additude !!

If I remember correctly...
He was a possible late 2nd – 4th round pick prospect if it was not for his service contract getting in the way. That is why we got him in the 7th. He was a bad ass for sure tho. I hope he is still in form, that is a long time to be away from football. Good luck bro your gonna need it… but we do need players.
If schwartz likes him enough
It could eliminate Berry at number 2

Correct
The article said he worked out with our LBs coach and special teams coach.

Similar to Follett really
Start him at special teams and give him time to learn the position and fit into the scheme.

Must have missed that
Thats cool hell even Urlacher played Saftey. I like the kid I really hope this works out for everyone. Even if he isn’t a starter he could be a big part of this team.

Good-o
The Bringers of Hope: Stafford - Delmas - C. Johnson - Pettigrew - Levy - Hill - Schwartz
Zack Follett: he will hurt your mind.
I hope he makes it.
He’s a class act. If he can contribute, thats even better.
Nice
He actually ran a really fast time at his pro day a year ago. It was a high 4.47 and a 4.50 i believe which is really good for any position.

Wow, I never thought I'd see everyone here so excited for a Millen pick!
j/k
It’s great that he’s finally getting a shot, and that he looks like he’s still in good enough football shape to compete for a spot.
Hey that's a timeout, I can play right? yeah, get me--get the F-- Help me up...I can throw the ball if you need me to throw the ball...
He won't make the team
But we can still cut Kalvin Pearson once he’s signed. This guy will not play linebacker. Maybe another special teams gunner.
nice story, but
I can’t picture this guy every really contributing to an NFL team. He might be good on Special Teams, besides that I can’t really picture him doing anything.
