Honestly couldn't care less what Get Up has to say, right now he's just a highly paid player that's regressed a lot who was being outplayed by 4 other LBers.  The Cowboys could have sat him on the bench and maybe recouped some value for the same result, but they just released him outright.  Even if Get Up is right that there's something no one is privy to at this point, there's no reason to pursue him then.  No need to add another mediocre player with baggage.

He'd still be the best LB on our team. Wilson flat out sucks and Jack looks lost in this 3-4 scheme. It's becoming clear that Jack is purely a 4-3 LB. He just doesn't fit this new scheme. Personally, I think OLB and ILB should be high priorities for us in the next draft.
