Out of the FA Lb ., Zach Cunningham imo would be as Lofa stated in the podcast someone linked earlier more “plug and play” for the defense

Good question. He's def. made some serious coin in his career. Not sure they could budget him in.

There's always room in the budget for a guy on minimum wage.

On July 30, 2023, the Steelers signed Alexander to a one-year, $1.31 million contract that includes a signing bonus of $152,500. - Wikipedia.

However, Alexander suffered suffered a season-ending torn Achilles on November 12. It'll be tough for him to play at a standard high enough for the NFL in 2024.

He’s be great if he can stay healthy but iirc hasn’t he been kind of plagued with injuries?

I can't remember for sure, but it sounds about right. 4 teams in 5 seasons also isn't desirable. Outsider and mercenary are the 2 words that pop into my head when I hear his name. Maybe unfair on my part.

If we could afford him, Matthew Judon from the Pats would be the guy I'd like. His contract is up and will likely be traded before the deadline, but I don't think there is any way we could afford a long term contract. Guess who his LB coach was in Balt from 2018-2020? Wish we could have him instead of D. Jones
