Welcome Kyle Van Noy, OLB

That takes the sting out a little of skipping over Nakobe Dean that I promise I will only bring up again a few more times.

Who, that slow little guy who scarfed up free scraps eating behind the best college DL in the history of pigskin?

Murray in coverage vs. the Raiders in that last game looked totally lost...I like what TT/Staley are doing, bringing in some solid vets along with the young bucks...

this, in a big way. they need to find the right fit for Murray (if there is one). whatever they asked him do in the raider game - that is the wrong fit.

Last season KVN played 16 games and had 66 tackles, 5 sacks, 2 forced fumbles, 1 int, 1 TD, 10 passes defensed. He can be useful.

Agree, he can help. Just wasn't expecting him. Somebody that never occured to me and never saw his name elsewhere here. I'm not down on it, he can help.

He is more a under the radar signing and he is certainly better than Mel at this stage who I have seen mentioned here, and Fackrell.

As i mentioned I was never big on KVN coming out but he played well for NE. Not so much in Detroit. Hope he fits for us.

I really like the addition. I think we can all agree that while KVN is not in his prime, he is still an intelligent player who can help mentor someone like K9.

I hope so...I hope km has the stuff in between the ears to learn how to be a much better LBer at the NFL level.

[Charge!]

Great signing!!!

Signings like Callahan and Van Noy are how you build championship depth....when key positions suffer injuries, you don't want to be forcing an underdeveloped rookie, or a street FA from the arena league, into critical situations. When your rebuilding, that's different....you want to develop players. But when you are in win now mode?

I don't think we are gonna see any need signings, or huge upgrades, for the rest of the offseason.

Edit: Unless that street FA from the arena league is Donald Parnham!

Excellent signing! This guy brings valuable experience to our team and championship pedigree. He's also Perfect fit to our young guys in the locker room. He's only 30, I thought he was older. 16 games last year he had 66 tackles, 5 sacks, 2 ints and a defensive td w/ 10 passes defended! I'll take that with the current defense we have now. It will only benefit us. Added bonus, he played with JC! Win for the Bolts!!!!! #BOLTUP!!!!

[Bolt-O]

JC and KVN will help in games vs. the Raiders as they have seen Josh McD's offense in detail in practice... just a question on how much that O changes with the addition of Adams.

Looking forward to McD’s team imploding similar to Denver :Beer1:

I think this could happen quickly if they don't get off to a strong start.

players will lose respect and check out.
