In looking at the cuts, Fred Smoot and Jake Delhomme just seem like Lions-type players.

Find a new slant.
at least Burleson allows us to not have to worry about a WR in the first few rds of the draft...
hopefully they cut Bryant Johnson now
MLive's Tom Kowalski tells FOX 2 that the team is on the verge of finalizing several additions including signing free agents Kyle Vanden Bosch and Nate Burleson , as well as trading for Cleveland Browns defensive lineman Corey Williams.

I love what Mayhew is doing. Adding quality players who fit the system. Also, like Ledezma said, now the Lions can spend an early pick on OL or defense.

I hope we address LG in free agency (Chester Pitts or Stephen Neal).
Addressing these needs now can allow us to focus solely on secondary in the 2nd and 3rd rds if we take Suh or Okung in Rd 1
4 year deal with KVB.
Also talking to chester Pitts OG.
Players meeting my ASS!
I sort of like what's going on so far... Don't know about the price/length on Burleson, that worries me some. Corey Williams is a fine acquisition for a 6th (I think). He will be playing a 3-technique DT in this scheme, not DE.
Vanden Bosch, Williams, Hill, Avril. Still looking at a DT early in the draft, a rotation of Williams, Hill, and Suh could be pretty sick. Hill in on run plays, Williams in on pass plays, etc.
I wonder what we'll do at RB.
But those are three pretty decent acquisitions, I'm a tid bit excited.
$26 mil for vanden bosch.
Why does it matter how much Ford spends? The fusion is selling well right now, the guy is making money, and its an uncapped year. I kind of like being the Yankees of free agency. It allows guys like Cliff Avril to be more situational rather than every down lineman. This will allow him to be fresher for passing downs.

If Mayhew signs a guard, we can now anoint him King. Give him a BK hat, Glenn.
