Coming on a free, that salary is going to be even more bloated; it will just fuck with the wage scale a year or two from now, when we should be giving other players raises.
Not quite the player he was (big injury issues the past couple years, very little continuity), not better than what we already have (rotational player at best), will want significant playing time, and is going to have little/no resale value (28).
Hmmm... no thanks! Would rather we try to find another quality LB, and move Asa back into the middle.
