Good I love this guys he's bat sh*t crazy but you have to be to play D like he does. He's a tone setter and a culture guy moving forward next year.

Looks like I'm wrong about him being an issue in the locker room. Otherwise Keim wouldn't have brought him back. Definitely a good player. Reports were that he didn't follow the game plan & freelanced.

Everyone still hates Steve Keim, though right? :biglaugh:

I mean, this was a no-brainer kind of move, but this is not the move of a GM about to be fired. This is an early FA move for next year.
So signing someone he should have never let go in the first place make up for 6 years of horrible drafts?

Really wanted the Chargers to go after him because he could've been their missing piece in the playoffs since they get terrible play from Addea.

Cardinals should be rebuilding, I don't understand this move from them all that much since it's unlikely they will be a playoff or winning team next season either. I wonder if Addea can request the Cardinals to not claim him so he can go to a playoff team and get more exposure which can help his contract status after next season.

NFL's waiver claim system should not apply this late in the season imo.

Well, if we didn’t claim him, SF, NYJ, OAK, or other non-playoff teams would have.

And how exactly does a reasonably priced Pro Bowl alternate, under age 30, not fit into a rebuild?

Gambo says Swearinger's contract is not guaranteed for next season.
