I'm not a big fan of FA acquisitions but I think this would be a good pick up.
We sure could use this guy and he sounds hungry to be the best at his job. Would fit right in with DJ TA & JH.

It's not that we couldn't use an upgrade from Akeem, but not for the price he'd be asking.
The headache it would cause would outweigh the benefit of having that upgrade next to DJ in the middle |

if the guy is healthy we'd finally have another ILB that is worth a shit.

Why make that more difficult on ourselves by overpaying for an ILB who already has gone through a season-ending injury once before? A LOT of free agent dough was spent this offseason. I don't think we need any more. It's not like we're acquiring Peyton Manning or anything like that, as good as Bishop is. |

If Akeem can't hack it, I'd rather just give Nico the shot rather than sign Bishop.

"A hamstring injury last preseason forced him to miss all of last year and Bishop has yet to be able to take part in any of the Packers offseason workouts."
That is not a good sign.

I'm sure Dorsey will give it consideration since he would have been involved in drafting him with the Packers.
The hamstring injury wasn't just a strain, he ruptured it. If Green Bay couldn't find a suitor for him around the draft weekend then maybe that injury is scaring teams away. |

Besides, what good young players? You're talking about two guys - Berry and Houston. I guess Charles expires around then, but man, you're talking about offering a 2nd contract to a RB...that's a notoriously poor gamble. I'd absolutely kick the tires. If he's thinking he's Julian Peterson I'd probably walk, but if we can get him for 3 years at market, I think he'd be an outstanding addition to a defense that's really starting to look pretty dangerous.
