Lions 2015 FA Tracker.

Lol, our boy Leshoure was actually one of the faster (and I'm using that term for comparison only here) backs at the event...

That is because they were holding a blunt and a package of cheetos at the finish line.

NOTEBOOK: Mayhew in contact with Rob Sims' agent

Mayhew: No decision yet on Reiff's fifth-year option

 

[Rollingthndr]

Garrett Reynolds - G - Rams
Rams signed G/T Garrett Reynolds to a two-year, $2.2 million contract.
Reynolds appeared in 10 games (four starts) as a versatile reserve for Detroit last year. He can play both guard and right tackle, and knows OL coach Paul Boudreau's scheme from their time in Atlanta. Reynolds' signing should not impact whether the Rams bring back free agent RT Joe Barskdale.

Guess he was not as bad as many of you were saying.

Compensatory picks biotches.

Passing on Fairley's 5th year is one thing. Passing on Reiff's.... Dude needs punched in the face.

There's still plenty of time remaining to pick up that option as he has until May 3rd, which will be after the draft.

but yeah, it seems to be a no brainer mover to pick that option up......... wait :confused2:

Like Gandy told me earlier, at least we know we're drafting #97 overall next year (Suh comp pick in 2016) and should get a 5th rd for Fairley.

 

[LPinSLC]

Why wait to pick up his option? Neat.

We should get a 2nd rounder. Aqib Talib gets them a third and is only making 9.5 mil.

Suh will be getting 19Mil a year. Detroit should get an exception

The fact we are even talking to Sims leads me to believe that we are not even close on anyone else. Also makes me worry more that we are that desperate on the O-line. Starting to think that maybe Waddells injury rumors might be true.

Scratching my head on the Reiff thing though. We are so thin already, why make the hole bigger after this year. I think we either draft a RT or move Reiff there and see how he does and hope Lucas becomes the real at LT.

 

[Gulf of Brazil]

possible comp picks for 2016

Suh 1st comp pick overall then Fairley a 5th rd and Jed Collins was last on the list at a 7th rd. I believe with Reynolds getting that deal he'd replace Collins

or they get lucky and C Cameron Erving is there at #23. he and Swanson battle it out for who's C and who's pushed over to LG. Another idea is hoping the very versatile Hobart OT/OG Ali Marpet is still available in the 3rd round at pick #88. However, Mayhew did bring in ex-Penn St RT Donovan Smith for a in-house prospect visit. Something is going on is right.

Marpet is listed as being ranked #80 by CBS... #107 by EsPn.... #74 by DraftTek
Smith is listed as being ranked #102 by CBS.... #86 by EsPn.... #54 by DraftTek

neither of these two are ranked top 100 by Walter

I won't be holding my breath that Scherff, Peat, Flowers or La'el Collins is available at #23

LMAO

Sad part is 10 days later there's nothing new to add to that list. Easily and unarguably the worst FA showing in Lions history. Probably sports history.

not true at all. MM is in contact with LG Rob Sims agent...

He wants Reiff to lose 10 lbs. and grow his hair out.

 

[Gulf of Brazil]

I wasn't kidding about MM in contact with Sims' agent... not that I like that possibility of coming to fruition 1 bit. it would be an add-on to that list that hasn't seen any action in the last 10 days tho...

Comp picks only start with the 3rd round.

Uhmm, you have all been warned!!

Somebody needs to get mod powers and prepare to ban me cause its not going to be pretty. I will actually take a shit in a box and overnight it to that mother fucker with magician flash paper in it so that it lights on fire when he opens the box.

 

[tpaulus_2]

God I hope we re-sign him just to see the shit-show that would ensue here!
