2009 Lions Offseason/Preseason News Thread

Douchemanzadeh or what have you.

I figured - I just had to be sure. Why, exactly, are the Lions looking at TJ? It will cost way to much money to get him, and there are plenty of other holes to fill besides receiver.

Just checked out Henry. Surprised I hadn't heard much of him. Had 10 INT's as a rookie for the Browns. Might have had a shot at defensive ROY that year but Kendrell Bell got it with 83 tackles and 9 sacks.
He only had one INT last season, but 6 the year before.

Absolutely more valuable to us than Kitna would have been.

Definately looks promising.

I'm not sure whats going on with TJ. He should be signed by now. Maybe he just isn't getting the kind of dough he expected. Cinci wants him, Seahawks want him but he didn't sign for some reason. Holding out or not getting good offers.

He's at the Vikes right now, fwiw. Maybe the Lions could step up and steal him.

Roto thinks the Lions might try Henry at safety.

Keep him at CB...we're hurting there.

^^lol. Regarding Douche, we were mentioned early, but aren't believed to be on his radar; I really doubt we are interested anymore after we signed Johnson.

Regarding Henry's position on this roster, all bets are off until we get to training camp and see what we have on the roster.

Lions may sign CB Jabari Greer today:

Here's to hoping. That would mean we could pass on an early corner in the draft, which would be good especially considering this is a fairly small and slow class (I still like Alphonso Smith though, dude can make plays).

I know im eating And i also know im a Lions fan to a fault, but i absolutly love what the Lions front office is doing thusfar. Not over paying, trying to swing trades, bringing in players with potential in their mid twenties. If they can somehow keep this up and draft well we can be very cometitive in 2 years.
