Im in the same opinion, I really don't think Pisa is much of an upgrade over Ellison. They are very similar players, fast, good in coverage, not powerful by any means, wont take on blockers. Rarely stuff the run at or behind the LOS.
We need an Angelo Crowell type player that is tough and physical in the run game but also a capable coverage LB.
There really is no point in getting a slightly better Ellison for significantly more money.
And for those of you who look at Pisa's tackling stats as superior to Ellison's, Pisa played Weak Side and Ellison played over the TE. Two completely different roles.
