Not sure he was the best out of the four we brought in for a look see but they must see something they like
-
Just by watching him play, he seems like a solid run stuffer

Not bad.

Numbers wise I believe he was the best of the four. All of them came into the league in 2008. Guyton was an UDFA and the only one above 107 tackles in 4 years with 229. Groves and Goff had 107 while Kehl had 106. This is IMO, the type of support signings we need. Too much times previous we've signed guys like Alama-Francis hoping they could contribute without getting much. Guyton is a low-cost, moderate production type of player. We're probably going to see more guys like this on the defensive side of the ball assuming Philbin wants to make a real transition to a strong offensive team. It leaves a lot of resources on the table for the offense, but gives us moderate production. In the NFL today, you don't necessarily need good D. You just need your D to be good enough. While teams like the Steelers and Ravens make their bones with great Defenses, on the flip side you have teams like the Packers starting Erik Walden (yes that one), the Colts previous starting guys like Jacob Lacey, and the Lions starting a Division I secondary.
EDIT: To sort of drive home my point, based on PPG, the Dolphins had the number 6 defense while the Patriots and Giants were 15 and 25 respectively. Conversely, the Dolphins had the 22nd offense in PPG while the Patriots and Giants were 2nd and 8th respectively. -

Well, I'd think Trusnik v Guyton for a roster slot, and I like Guyton's athleticism.

Isn't he really fast? If he can fly down and hit someone on punt team and kickoff team then it's a good signing IMO.
