If Jeremiah Trotter doesnt end up with the Bucs(and I dont think he will) I can see him ending up in New Orleans or Carolina.
I think that's a good call. New Orleans is a very real possibility considering the rag tag group of linebackers the Saints are currently running out there. Don't get me wrong, I like every guy they have at linebacker, but they don't have one guy who is a difference maker. They're all "nice" players and I think that any one of them would be best served as a #4 linebacker. I don't know that they have a starter who can separate himself from the pack in the NFL.
Anyway, as far as Lemar to the Bengals: good for him. He's a guy who did everything the Skins could have asked him and it basically ended up getting him cut. While I don't think he's a starter in this league he is definitely a good guy to have on the team because he is so versatile.
I never liked the idea of him moving inside, but he was adequate. Unfortunately, it seemed to me that he bulked up in order to move inside and, when he moved back outside, he looked a whole slower. I think he's best served in a reserve role, but I'd take him in as my 4th linebacker any day of the week.
All that said, I like the Godfrey addition.
