mathis got a 1 year deal and he's 33.  probably his last season in detroit.  chris houston...meh.    darius slay was a 2nd rounder who should be getting better (we'll see). and bill bentley...meh...was a 3rd.

imagine if the lions had a chance to get gilbert this year.  kids gonna be good.


He's the only CB I would have been fine with us drafting. I figured we would if he was still available but that didn't work out. His size would have really helped us out, especially against teams like the Bears.

Denard > for the Msu pride . We just need someone on the back end and were golden. We need s no fly zone asap, especially q th it being a passing league corners and safeties are one of the biggest st positions now

This. I think it was prob. one of the best pickups we could hae made. I am not sure what you mean by his ego though. He has a great personality... doesn't seem full of himself at all.


Also, for all the people still doubting Ebron. Let me ask you this. What was our biggest problem last year? I would dare say it was Stafford no? I mean until he fell apart we were on our way to playoffs. This gives Stafford another weapon. In fact it gives him a very talented safety blanket. Every elite QB has had them. Brady, Brees, Peyton.

When these new coaches came in all the talk was on how we could hope they could "fix" Stafford. Now they are making moves to do just that and people are getting upset. It's just kind of humorous.
