Speculation: John Lynch 

Post#1 » by Celtics_Champs » Tue Oct 21, 2008 10:20 pm

PFT is speculating that we go after Lynch.

It would be nice to bring him back. I think meriweather will step up and do fine in the starting role.. he is actually catching the balls thrown right to him this year. But lynch would be great depth.

Like you said, he'd be great depth. I wouldn't look for him to come in and start, but strictly as a the safety going into the box you couldn't find a better guy imo.

Where's Seau? He still hasn't ruled out returning and the Pats are the only team he'll come back for. A press conf. announcing the signings of Lynch & Seau would be a nice little "bringin in the cavalry" moment.

I'm sorry Lynch was a very good safety for a long time. But the guy just can't run anymore. He was way too slow in the preseason. He's done and I see no reason why they would bring him back.

As for Seau, there is really no room for him. He showed he still had it and he knows the system. If a linebacker goes down it wouldn't shock me tho.

I'd love to see them both back, but at this point its better to play younger players like Mayo and Meriweather
