Welcome SupaMel, Maybe

[Boltgang74]

He’s probably better than the bottom half of the roster, and maybe he’d be more effective in a rotational role that keeps him fresh. I haven’t heard a better name to add to the D front, are there any? Wait to see the June cuts?

Any way to stretch his arms? Ok, prob not.

Justin Houston is waaay better than Mel,jus sayin.

Haha obviously he doesn’t need or care about my opinion, just giving my .02 on a fan thread.
I think people are simplifying it for MI, to me, there is no need for a visit, you know what KC is offering, the visit was not benign, it was to send a message, an unneeded one.
Maybe I’m wrong, but why risk signing a potentially resentful guy? Unless Staley bangs the table, I’m good.

You think he went to KC because HE wanted to see what THEY had? Uh … I wasn’t there so its purely speculation but I am guessing THEY wanted to see him.

I think he wanted to go to feel like a valued FA and let us know he’s wanted.
I think KC has seen plenty of MI and risked nothing to bring in a disgruntled ex rival

I think you read way too much into things. Where do you get this disgruntled aspect from? Quotes made to media etc? The man is coming off and injured year the end of his career and still wants to play. Whether it's here, there, or anywhere. If any one of us had the fortune to be in those shoes would be doing the exact same damn thing.

It's really not a stretch to imagine MI feeling hurt after not being offered a contract from the team you've made a home with from the start.
I think taking a trip to KC was a bit more than just business, you don't and that's fine. Naive imho

[equivocation]

I would also add that winning coaches win by maximizing value and production from rookie contracts. We have a lot of rookie contracts. Let them play.

[Velo]

I want Mel back just so we can play this song.

[SuperCharged]

Pass.... Unless he's comes back for cheap and show up in shape or no $$$

[Topcat]

No thanks.
showing up fat to camp last season told me his heart isn't into it
then the hold-in followed by immediately getting hurt, idk, I feel a bit swindled
visiting the Red also told me he has no sense of rivalry
still can't get the imagine out of my head of him (and lambo) laughing it up with the raiders after an L
jesus christ has football changed
ya I'll take heat here for my unpopular opinions but I'll also stand by them, pass on Ingram
use the cap elsewhere or roll over

If Not-so-Supa Mel couldn't even generate ONE measly sack opposite BOSA, one of the elite pass rushers in the league, that alone is proof Mel is done...Bosa commanded most of the double teams...so all Ingram had to do is beat ONE man most of the time...oops, looks like that didn't happen...pass...

[jubei]

if for absolute vet minimum with no guarantees then I'm OK with that. but I saw AT LEAST one play where he flat out just stood there doing nothing while everyone else was doing something. I've seen enough of him to see he's not gonna produce much. Even when he did produce a bit it wasnt a crazy amount. could be that he was used incorrectly but he never seemed to amaze me except for his throwing arm strength.

[Boltjolt]

Telesco pretty much said they werent going to pursue him and even wished him well elsewhere.

Mel might be back in LA but it seems like it will be as a Ram than a Charger.

[Boltjolt]

Yes.
Bradley's D didn't make anyone look good.
I'd love to see Mel play fpr Coach Staley.

Joey looked good. Derwin looked good, Hayward looked good, Denzel when healthy looked good.
Mel has underachieved his whole career imo.
