Morrison has overrated stats, but Lofa as a back-up inside is not bad.

Tatupu used to be really good, and he's not that old. I read where he tore his pectoral muscle in 2009 and missed most of the season. He played in every game last year, but I don't know how good he was. If he' still anywhere near as good as he used to be, he would be a good backup at the right price. It's not Ted Thompson's style to sign a player like this, though, so I would say it's unlikely.

The Morrison that played with the Raiders was a player.. if we are having trouble locking in depth at Linebacker.. I wouldn't mind taking a look at him.. tough player.. reminds me of a Wayne Simmons type with stoutness and range.

Tatupu - Have to be honest.. didn't watch alot of SeaChicken games.. don't really have an opinion.

2 years ago i would have exploded to get Tatupu,
one of my fav LBs for a long time, but he is too small, especially for a 3-4.

And really it's not about size, but about instinct and how physical is while playing... Bishop is very good because he attack the blocking and is able to shed it, not because he's big...

My guess is these guy would want a chance to rebuild their value with a one year deal in place where they'd get a chance to start. That's not here. If they were willing to accept a back up role, I think they would be solid upgrades over Francois and whoever the other dudes are!

beast (15-Jan) : Cover 2, keep a CB and Safety over top of both WRs... and Hurts (like Rodgers) is overly careful and doesn't like any risk in his throws.
