I thought the idea was to get a veteran who could fit in a rotation and help them learn.


Probably familiarity with scheme. Butler played for Ryan in the 3-4 in Dallas. I don't think Gallete has ever played in a 3-4 and Wilson was a 3-4 ILB at Illinois, but has been a 4-3 OLB & DE in the NFL.

And Butler has been pretty good when he's got a chance to play.

Elvis Dumervil's contract not filed with NFL in time. Dumervil released, as Denver Post released.

Exact same thing could be said about Galette and Wilson.

As far as Galette and Wilson not having experience, just about every player that gets switched to 3-4 OLB never played that position. I get that Butler is familiar with the system, but that doesn't change the fact that he is unproven just like the 2 guys we already have.
