One name I'm not seeing mentioned here... is LaDainian Tomlinson.

Yeah, I know, he's old. But hey, we signed Ahman Green. Who's to say he can't produce? Look at Curtis Martin's last years.

Curtis Martin's last year was one in which his YPC and overall yardage dropped to 3.3 and 735, respectively, over 12 games. That was before he went onto IR. He was going very strong before that. He retired the year after that.

LT didn't hit the wall that hard, as he already declined last year, but this stats this year where 3.3 YPC and 730 yards over 14 games.

Tomlinson has nothing left in the tank. He already didn't look as strong as he used to last year, but it appears that he's totally done now.

As good as LT was, at this point he's no improvement over Grant, and he's no longer fast enough to be a change of pace back. I don't see any upside to signing him, especially with the glaring needs at OT and safety.

Lee was drafted for the previous scheme. He's a man to man cover guy who likes to get up and play physical. He has to make progress in zone if he's going to make the team next year. If GB passes on Cromartie for say a 3rd and 6th because they have Pat Lee, it'll be a mistake.
