the ravens just traded the rights to him, meaning if he does un-retire, he will be a cowboy.
its ALL risk
best case scenario somehow he passes a physical and somehow plays after a year away from the game. i wish he wouldve been committed to football i wouldve liked to see him as a raven
but word he wont pass a physical, and if he does he's been stating he cares nothing for football anymore so at best you will have a guy collecting a paycheck
he's a bum
diode is right
lulz ensue
with me saying this, watch him be reignited tho with the spark and passion to play and be one of the best mlb'ers in the league lol
either way im over it. we got a solid starter in smith and a butkus award winner of our own, plus brown from last years draft who is bigger and flying around with a grasp on the defense finally
so even if mcclain un-retired as a raven he'd have to fight for a roster spot
at least in dallas he might see the field

How is it not a low risk situation. The odds of a 6th or 7th round pick making the team is less than 15%.
Dude was a former top 10 pick.
He wasn't awful when he played with the raiders but it's obvious that he wasn't mentally checked in. Can that be fixed ? Maybe maybe not. But even his worst season with Oakland 2012, he graded out as pro football focus' number 10 inside lb against the run. So even if he can only play 2 downs it's a steal.
The cowboys have little to no depth at lb.
Has McClain lived up to his hype? Hell no. But is he the second coming of Ryan leaf? Not at all.
