The Washington Post reports the taterskins are interested in former Eagles linebacker/special teamer Keith Adams.

From my impressions of him the past couple of years I would love for us to sign him. I think he's a good special teamer and solid backup LB.

What is everyone's take on him? Would he fit in with our defense?

TAKE HIM!

I'm with him. Don't care if he comes back one way or the other. He's a good special teams player, but subpar Linebacker. He has a great knack for being around a tackle after it's happened.

I guess that's all we're really looking for is depth at LB and talent on special teams. Did he start for Philly at all at LB?

very good special teams player,  very poor LB when he started for the year.   0 sacks, 0 INT's, 0 forced fumbles, 0 fumbles recovered, 1 pass defended.

ST's help is always good. Hopefully if we do sign him then he will improve at LB as a backup.

Holdman didn't fill Arrington's void like we had hoped. He was solid but not impressive.

I thought he played well the year we went to the Superbowl. That proved to be a flash in the pan, though. He's a career backup and good special teams player. Guess you could say he 'started' for us, but that's not saying much since he rotated with Simoneau who is equally as worthless.

Jake, hes all yours.....if he does start somehow for your skins, then you know your team is in trouble.

Yeah I'd be shocked if he started for us.

We're at the stage of looking for reserves and role players.

So far we're targeting Sam Cowart, Adams, Jonathan Goodwin, and Jamar Fletcher.

While all those guys are backup material, Adams shouldn't even be mentioned in the same breath with them. That is how much he Adams sucks at LB. Decent STer though.
