"What’s going to be interesting is with the defense switching to the 4-3 I think he’s going to be a consideration for the strong side linebacker position. Talking to Coach Wannstedt he did express a desire to get Morrison re-signed. I think he’s capable of backing up Sheppard in the middle while also competing for a starting role at SLB."

Morrison played the middle linebacker spot as a member of the Oakland Raiders and Jacksonville Jaguars. He has never played the outside linebacker position in the NFL.

Even though he was running on empty, Bucs such as Sapp & Brooks credit Hardy Nickerson & his leadership for helping them become the players they became. Brooks said he showed us what it takes to be a PRO. The work that must be put in.

As long as they can still play I don't mind having a vet "coach on the field" yet as we learned from Eddie (duked by Chad Pennington) Robinson sometimes age catches up with talent and it's better looking elsewhere. Keep Morrison for depth/veteran leadership but hope we don't have to start him for more than 1 or 2 games.

Bring back Fletch.

Bring back Fletch.

If Fletch was 10 years younger I'd love to have him back.

Kirk Morrison was a good LB in Oakland and Jacksonville but never really had a solid interior DL in front of him.

With KW and Dareus eating up blocks Morrison can have a real big impact. He's not a downhill MLB or a thumper but he gets sideline to sideline real well and gets in on a lot of tackles.

Also decent in coverage.

Why not resign him? He's had success before and it fills a hole.
