Seeing that he only has 4 career INT's and 21.5 sacks (with a high of 9.5) LB is probably his best chance. But with his extensive injury history, I expect a maximum of six games from him.

Nah, I'm in with it and believe like you that if anyone can, it's going to be Pete. Also, this is low risk, high reward from the things I have read. Can't understand why people are so down on it. If he doesn't work out...you cut him.

My take is Jamal called in a favor, let the brass know he's been working hard, healthy and wants a chance to make a team. Here we are.

Thats where he'll be lining up, close the line of scrimmage

If he makes the squad, I suspect they will use him to cover RB's out of the backfield and such, stop the run and occasionally blitz. He is not old, he just has begun to break down.

I don’t expect him to make the team but he’s worth a camp invite.

Would love to see hybrid players like Chin and Adams lining up on the outside in an 8 man-cover 3 front.

Yes he would be the 3rd linebacker along with J. Chin as the strong safety. I'm reading that T. Taylor is making a statement too. You can't just ignore a Jim Thorpe award winner.

At the very least he knows what Pete wants on the defense.

I don't know how the team will be in coverage, but we have a hell of an amount of talent in terms of blitzing ability. Both White and Adams both had 9 sack years at one point in their career which is wild. Then you add that to a room that already has players like Chinn and Roberts who also excel at it, and you can probably add Pola-Mao to that as well.

Anyone know the details of his contract? Team friendly I hope?

Details have not been released, but it is assumed to be in the 1.2M range on a one year deal with very little if any guaranteed.
