Pisa Tinoisamoa Released

[FinAtic8480]

Rams released LB Pisa Tinoisamoa.
This is a case of a good player not fitting his new coach's scheme, but it's still surprising that the Rams would release last year's team leader in tackles. Though the Rams tried Pisa at SAM linebacker last month at minicamp, he didn't have the size to stay there. It's not clear who will start along with James Laurinitis and Will Witherspoon. Chris Draft and Quinton Culberson are the leading contenders.

What an upgrade over Akin would this kid be. He would also come cheap cause he is just got released. Kid is coming of a plus 100 tackle season and 2 force fumbles. I know alot of names are thrown on this site, but this kid is a great player.

Lacking size is not a good fit for our system.

true, but zach played ilb for us and the cowboys.

 

[DENVERDOLFAN]

Zach was let go because they want size at the spot.

BP likes big guys...esp at LB.

 

[capecoralfinfan]

i mean with saban in the 3-4. he excelled there being so tiny.

Actually, Zach played for Cam Cameron at MLB. There's a big difference between that, and playing for THIS regime at ILB.

 

[dramaMEAN]

how does that name fit on the back of a jersey!

Pisa is 6-1 and Zach was 5-11 there is a huge difference. Both Channing and Akin are 6-2 the guy is an inch smaller. I think he has the size and what they will be running in St.Louis is a 4-3.

and played a pro bowl season in the 3-4 saban hybrid.

Should bring him in...6'1"/240-245...tackles everything, plays sideline-to-sideline, a ballhawk with a motor...and ONLY 27...yeah, that's a BP guy.

Guys Pisa height is 6-1 the guy has more then enough hieight. Rotoworld saying the decision was based on height is them over guessing. The result of Pisa being released is St.Louis just Drafted Laurianitis and wanted to go with there guy plain and simple.

I think the kid is better and younger than Akin and Im a fan of Ayodele, but truth is this kid is better and would be awesome for Miami, I also love the fact he can cover. Kid has 10 career sacks, 7 INTs and 20 PDefs

SOLD. sign him up.

Are we missing something? who on earth just drops their leading tackler?

you're telling me there was no market for this guy as far as a trade goes?
