Default Could Lynch still help out?

I don't know if he would still be a consideration as a desperate move and don't know if he could help out at CB or ILB but does anyone think since he is familiar with the team for the time he was here still be a drastic call from BB down the road?

Could Lynch play ILB or CB if it was necessary? and does he have any experience with either position in al his years other than his normal SS position?

I wonder though if his speed if too slow for anymore NFL play

He still can't be any slower then Bruschi has looked prior to his unfortunate season ending injury

Lynch has stated many times over he still loves the game but is he capable anymore of making any type of minor impact??

I think they would have already called him last week () if he could be of any help. That is when they put the other old timers on the plane!

First of all, John Lynch is retired.

Second of all, I'd rather have Sammy Baugh playing CB or ILB than Lynch.

Brett Favre was retired

Junior Seau was retired

Many other sports legends retired then came back

So why spew that crap when the word RETIRED is just that?....a word

On that note,I myself would not want to see Lynch play here,especially 38 years old and out of football for 5 months and not having played those positions much, but its a discussion for those who may think differently

Seau held off on retiring I'm sure because there was a discussion that should this injury issue arise, he'd be on the short list. I don't think Lynch got that message headed out of Gillette.
