    Colbert get on the phone and bring this guy back, you can cut Chickillo due to his arrest, and the fact that he sucks other than special teams.

    I get it, but if he was released from an atrocious Giants team it was for a reason. Fans get enamored with preseason play, and then some of these guys just never pan out. Sure I would like to get him back, but if he could not make it with the Giants what makes us think he will be difference makes here?

    He would also have to clear waivers. Let’s see...

    Players get released and picked up all the time, and end up having success, for all kinds of reasons. Just because a bad team releases a player, doesn't mean the player is bad. based on what he showed in preseason and him knowing the system, I'd say he's worth bringing back. Especially given the situation with Chick.

    We have a pretty high waiver priority right now, so if we want him, it shouldn't be a problem.

    The giants had tuzar for de, which he's not equipped to do at the nfl level....... he's taylor made for 3-4 olb, which is why we should've kept him over chik-fila in the first place

    Correct.

    He had limited snaps but did have half a sack. We know he looked good in our scheme.

    Should be a no brainier. Bring him back. Cut Chick if need be .

    That's the problem. It's one name.

    If chick has to go then wouldn't be a bad pick up. Get ola some more spell duty behind the ones and skipper for depth. We know chick don't have it regardless and I'd like to see what ola has if anything.

    Why put in a waiver claim and put him in the 53 when he won’t be claimed by another team......

    Wait, and sign him back to the PS

    Not exactly sure how that works. Is the 53 rule for waiver claims or only if you poach a practice squad player??
