I would sign him for a 2 yr deal to play leroys hills spot then draft a stud and let them compete that would be awesome! Remember he was a safety like kam inthe beggining would he be god to play olb on the hawks

Outside Linebackers still have to be fast. Urlacher is not that anymore.

Instincts and veteran knowledge and he was 4.5 speed what does he play at today? Also we draft a replacement that is better, is urlachet better than leroy at this point

no..... /thread

This idea is about as sensible and plausible as acquiring Peyton Manning to run the read option.

There is a reason the Bears don't want him back, and its
not that they can't afford him.

Timmay? Is that you!?

I think it's time for Urlacher to hang up his cleats and join Lewis in retirement. Hate to see these guys go out like this. He was one of the best for a long time. I guess he doesn't want to go softly into that good night.

_________________

hes done!!

He just wants to go out on his terms just like all of us.

He'll land somewhere. Hell, Lofa stayed out a year and he landed a gig in Atlanta... but only to get re-injured and never to see the field during the regular season.

Baltimore might be interested. They definitely have LB-er needs.

BTW, this should be moved to NFL Nation.

The Hawks didnt get where they are by signing over-the-hill players

Lots of respect for Urlacher, but I'd rather roll with Smith/Morgan than bring in a slower, older guy who might have great instincts, but not the speed to match them any longer. He's not an upgrade, and signing him would just be throwing money at a name.

I concur. She is a delicious piece of eye candy.

I guarantee we draft for this spot, at the very least for competition.

That's definitely what these guys would do!

Urlacher mighta ran a 4.5 back in the day, but I can almost guarantee that he'd run a 5 flat now. He makes Manti Te'o look like Chris Johnson. Hey, while we're at it, how bout we trade Beast Mode for Chris Johnson? Sell high!

Horrific idea. He's never played the WILL, He's always been a MIKE.
He's riddled with injuries and I'd suspect Malcolmn Smith would play at a higher level. Afterall he's has several years of experience in this system (going back to college) Plus he's way cheaper.

Negatory my fellow 12.

No Kidding-- I just might become a SUPERMAN fan with that display. Good grief.

indeed

No kidding. I'm surprised we don't see more threads suggesting we bring retired players back

Would not sign, even for free. We have no use for an old, oft injured and S L O W linebacker.

urlacher is best going to a team that lacks leadership and can use his veteran savvy.

That is not the Hawks. They have defensive leaders that are younger and less of an injury risk, you don't want to ruin that chemistry by bringing in another big name but spent player.

We struggled against the run last year, and he ranked 31st vs the run. I'd sign him as a back up but he won't take back up money.

Of course this is the same guy that whined to Chi-Town TV and sports channels about the Seahawks being a dirty play team? That was just the next morning. He actually ran a play down from behind in that game, so still shows flashes of speed.

But he also got injured that game and I'm not sure he played anymore that season.

Just say no to Brian Urlacher. Anyway he would never show his face here after that game.

Maybe BU was sandbagging it the last few years...?

If he can show me 4.6 speed and a flawless physical, then maybe.

We've drafted a LB, DB, DL and OL in every year under the Carroll regime.

It makes sense, as those positions tend to be affected by depth and attrition more than most. It doesn't seem like it's a coincidence.

Too old, and now too slow, no thanks!

Besides that, while he was one of the best, time waits for nobody and his time is past.

We have a quality young MLB and don't need one that is old slow and expensive. Further we don't need the media circus Urlacher would bring with him. Let him go somewhere where the team actually need a 1 or maybe 2 year guy with seriously declining skills who is now injury prone.

Younger, bigger, faster, stronger, something good is being built here and we don't need another team's tired castoff to put us over the top and lead us to the championship long sought and so far denied.

There are very few old players that can help this team, Urlacher isn't one of them. New young blood is the true direction the team needs to take.

_________________
Until we develop a pass rush that will cause opposing teams to be forced to scheme to defend it we will never be able to completely take the final step. Until the OLine is strengthened the team will remain weak.

The Seahawks are past the time when they need to sign big name FAs to sell tickets and fill seats. Nor do they lack in veteran leadership.

The product is on the field, the goal is winning games. IMHO BU would not contribute to that in a positive way.

Bears barely wanted to give him $2M. Any team would be foolish to pay him $2.5M. I agree with those who say this team doesn't need to be in the mode of grabbing older veterans to establish a foundation. If this was the Seahawks under Pete and John the first year, maybe but not at the price listed by the ever zealous OP poster.

There is a place for a player like Urlacher but his knees are a big problem. This was known prior to last season and the Bears tried to manage it and he still was unable to last. What makes the OP think he can last an entire season now?

League minimum, veteran leader/mentor. If that was the case I'd be down. I think he would be clutch in the lockerroom/film room/on field for our defense.
