Would be a great fit in a team that runs a 3-4 defense where his lack of speed and athletic ability could be concealed.

He's been clocked faster than Luke. He has off-the-chart speed.

Wish him nothing but the best. 

He's earned his right to move on.

[SOJA]

Hope someone pays that man, both for him and for our compensation pick

Mayo's better anyways. Klein could never quite Ketchup and mustard the ability to start consistently. I hope he relishes the opportunity somewhere else

We wouldn't have gotten as much for him as people think we would.

He was a 5th round pick for a reason.

I just hope he doesn't sign with someone like Cleveland and find himself in a pickle.

Numbers don't tell the whole story. Luke ran a 4.58, but his instincts and preparation let him play a lot faster than that. Klein is not slow. Hell, TD ran a 4.6 at the combine.

I think he was getting at the news that Klein had better reaction time than Luke in practice using those helmet devices. I can't find the article anywhere but apparently that was a thing.

He is no chicken in the gaps,, really brings the sauce on hits hits to RBs. One nugget of advice I would give to teams is to expect him to need help with runners who have shake-n-bake in the open field. He can over pursue.

One thing is sure... we won't be as salty at his departure as we were at Peppers'.

Well Klein is white so obviously he lacks athleticism...

[MCC]

I never thought he was as good as people make him out to be.
