Packers Sign LB Kirksey Hours Before Start of Free Agency

How so. He has about the same numbers as far as impact plays as Martinez. Sacks Ints passes defended and forced fumbles are all close and Martinez has fewer seasons played.

Martinez has started more games in 4 years than Kirksey has in 6 years because of Kirksey's injuries.
Martinez gets the nod on total tackles. But how many yards after contact did Martinez allow as compared to Kirksey? Haven't found that stat yet, but my gut says that Kirksey did better.

One stat that caught my eye was Kirksey had more than double the number of QB hits that Martinez did, which tells me he affected more pass plays when he blitzed.
