    Yes, it is terrible thing that we signed a veteran, maybe HOF, LB as a stopgap because Herm left the cupboard so bare on the entire front 7 of our defense.

    Is this as bad as you thought getting Cassel was, or is this a different level of bad to you?

    Talking

    I like this move adds depth to the LB If they draft Aaron curry this will be a very good linebacking core think of it curry on outside johnson and Thomas in the midde and verbal on the other end OMG put some DE up their that's scary

    Perfectly said. Pioli isn't handing Zach a 10 yr contract.

    I don't know about HoF but everything else rings true.

    When you're left with nothing its better to add something.

    We already learned last year after the Herm debacle that the 'rookie' movement and depleting the stock of veteran leadership does not make a team any better.

    If you look at the FA market the pickings are slim so if Pioli can insert some veteran leadership for a one-two year deal (stop gap) then I say go for it. We have the cap space and what better way to mentor you're incoming talent through the draft then by providing them with some All Pro/Pro Bowl caliber players on both sides of the ball.

    Once again fixing the problem now by planning for the future. These guys are stepping stones of whats to come.

    My question is does this mean the end for drafting Curry possibly?

    I would be shocked if Zach Thomas didn't make the HOF. He was one of the best MLB's in this league for a long time. He is 3rd on the all-time leading tackler list in the history of the NFL.
