Imagine a pressure package of Clay, Gary, Z, P and Kenny.

I always thought dropping into coverage was an underappreciated part of Clay's game.

I can see him as an ILB/backup EDGE.  

And I think he'd look good back there dropping into zones.  But...he has to want that.  Doubt he does.

and I strongly think we'd be one of the last teams he would want to do that for...

For a guy who hates on Gary so much, I'm surprised by your position here. Matthews had 8 sacks in a starting role for LA last year. Imagine him in a system where he no longer is the focal point, but rather, at best, probably your 3rd best pass rusher on the field with the Smiths... This doesn't even take into consideration his ability to play inside. It's not like he had 2 sacks last year and just looks washed...

He was playing for the Rams because he wasn't a scheme fit

Why

because he built a magnificent mansion in LA, he doesn't need the cash and he certainly doesn't want to bang heads inside and risk his health.
He's a pass rush specialist and can play for any number of other teams, some of them closer to home
No to ILB, no to Green Bay at this point in his life/ career.

I'm not sure that's even better than last year's pressure package.

Clay is the ILB.  Who would you rather have, Martinez on a blitz or Matthews on a blitz?  Quit being a butthead and accept that Matthews is a fun player to root for.
