After he stopped taking roids he posted a 12.5 sack season.

I'd say his injury and not wanting to be in San Diego has a lot to do with his bad performance.

Shawne Merriman-LB- Chargers Oct. 18 - 10:03 am et

The Ravens have interest in trading for Shawne Merriman if he passes a physical and is willing to sign a low-money deal, according to SI's Peter King.
As King notes, those are two very big "ifs." Merriman's calf and Achilles are just two of the injury problems he's dealt with lately and the former All-Pro surely wants more money than he is worth at this point. It's more likely that the Chargers will end up waiving Merriman.

Looks like we're not getting Merriman after all. Damn 9ers just make a move already!!!

If they waive him, we have a good shot at signing him, since our record is so poor.

I think he's going to play a lot better after he gets to a new team, he shut it down while playing for san diego.

Unless Buffalo (who apparently moved to a 3-4 defense) puts in a claim too.
