Should the 49ers try and sign Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila???

EDITOR'S NOTE 1:10PM: I was going to post something about this.  KGB was placed on waivers by the Packers today.  He is guaranteed his salary so if somebody claims him I think they'd have to pay him the prorated version of his $6.15 million salary.  If he clears waivers, he'd still be guaranteed the salary, but his next time would then be able to sign him for the veteran's minimum.  I know we've been trying to switch to the 3-4, but with a sufficient mix of the 4-3, is it worth making a move for him?  Or maybe the team should just see what Ahmad Brooks can do at defensive end.  Thoughts?  I'm going to add a poll to this.

Knowing all of the major issues that the San Francisco 49ers have with the pass rush, what would everyone think about having Kabeer Gbaja- Biamila?

Kabeer was released today by the Green Bay Packers ( link: http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3676640) and he was a great pass rusher in his time there. According to the article on ESPN, Kabeer has 74.5 sacks in his 9 seasons with the team which was more than Reggie White's 68.5.

He could be a great addition to this team, so tell me, what do you think? Should we try to pick him up off of the waiver wire or leave him?
