And your starting linebacker is: Keith Bulluck

The Giants have signed veteran LB Keith Bulluck to a one year deal.  According to Ralph Vacchiano of the NY Daily News, the former Tenessee Titan was brought in to start at MLB.  I'm sure the Giants' brass will say the competition is still open, but it's clear that the team was not satisfied with their options.  Bulluck is coming off surgery to repair a torn ACL, an injury he suffered only about 7 months ago.  That seems awfully fast to return from such an injury, but he passed a physical and the Giants seem willing to roll the dice.  If he can still play, Bulluck will not only provide a veteran option in the middle, but also be a solid back-up for the strong and weaksides.  It will be interesting to see how he looks in preseason.
