You never know, esp. the way the rest of this offseason has been.
My point was that I didn't want this possible signing to be viewed as a long term answer. But Bruschi and Hartwell with a young guy behind them would be mighty appetizing. I would be very happy if Vrabes could play primarily outside.
My question is where does that leave Thomas and Colvin? If Thomas isn't used inside, then we got one too many starting OLBs on the roster. Vrabel, Colvin, and Thomas? I'm sure BB knows what he's doing, just curious to see where he puts them.

"Next comes inside linebacker. Tedy Bruschi is the only player certain to play full-time there with Mike Vrabel and Thomas having the versatility to move over and the gutsy veteran isn't quite what he once was.
There are options there. Veteran Edgerton Hartwell has had preliminary talks with the team, is willing to come in on a one-year deal and has the size and 3-4 experience to make it work, so long as he stays healthy.
Hartwell (still just 28) could provide at least an early-down stopgap, if a rookie's drafted somewhere. That rookie, in fact, could well be Ole Miss' Patrick Willis with the 24th pick. But whoever it may be, if there is someone, would probably need to be eased into a very difficult position for a young player to take on."
If this were to happen, my offseason would be pretty much complete.

Bring him in with a incentive ladden deal and see what happens..
One more post so I'm not stuck on the Number of the Beast.
Just FYI, recent research has identified the "number of the beast" as being more likely to be all 7's rather than all 6's, due to a misinterpretation of one of the many editors of the text.

More crap, just like the davinci code and the tombs of jesus's family.
