Bob Quinn has personally looked over his game tape and said he is the best prospect he has ever seen.

Oh wait -- that was Teez Tabor. Disregard my statement

Well he has not been in the Patriots system yet. Now he will be like super Bruschi

We now have signed about 32 special teams aces.

good thing the 2020 NFL season will be cancelled when it's all said and done come September.

We'll need another year to re-tool what b-b-q tried to haphazardly fix this off-season.

U N D E F E A T E D!!!!!!!!!!!!!

good for Martin on his new deal

Bobby Q be drafting another punter in 5th round this year

Seems like there was no interest on either side in Martin extending his stay in Detroit. I don't get that.

At least he'll be playing for a better organization.

Bobby Q has constantly stated he likes playmakers.
I don't see how a CB coming off an injury with a broken arm and one who has dropped 12 possible Int's fits the bullshit his mouth has spewed regarding playmakers.
At least the Lions have consistency in being a Schedule Filler. My only question is... will the overpaid Actors be able to preform when they're favored by the nfl officials?

cool.

a CB who has dropped 12 possible Int's

and can't cover for 4+ seconds either

He will be decent at least. As long as he doesn't have to shadow #1 WR's.
Really think Okudah might be the pick.
If he isn't, I am not liking Quinn's previous history of picking CB's in any other round.

  • Lions signed WR Geronimo Allison to a one-year, $1 million contract.
    Allison took a step back last year after flashing in 2018, finishing with a 34/287/2 line while playing 63 percent of snaps. His 60 targets were third on the Packers, but Allison faded down the stretch, failing to clear 40 yards after Week 4. Signing with Detroit allows Allison to stay in the division, but it would take an injury ahead of him to open 2020 higher than the No. 4 receiver behind Kenny Golladay, Marvin Jones, and Danny Amendola.

Hopefully he is fully recovered from the groin injury in week 4 and the crushing hit from TW3 and returns to form. He could take over for Amendola going forward.

I don't see Allison playing in the slot. He is 6'3". My guess is he is nothing more than depth at the position.

The great thing about the latest Patriots cast off we signed is papa Bill did not make us give up a draft pick this time.

Kenny Wiggins was brought back. I guess I missed this last week. I predicted we would bring him back. If we can only get rid of the other guys now and get a starter at RG we will be in decent shape. I am sure we will draft one as well. I have my eye on Ruiz.

While free agency inspires hopes of improving a roster, the Lions have worsened since March 16.

Dallas probably beats us to Ruiz.

Travis Fredrick retired.

It's a Jerruh Jones move in the waiting whether he moves down in the 1st round or up in the 2nd round.
