2010 Lions Offseason

[Wilfredo Ledezma]

2 yrs ago in GB, Corey Williams had 7 sacks.

He's had 4.5 in 32 games w/ the Browns since then.

Corey Williams = Dewayne White = average at best DE

We need Vanden Bosch. That way we can cut Dewayne White.

[Wilfredo Ledezma]

God, it's not even funny how bad we need a corner now.

Now that Cromartie's been shipped to the Jets, it's gotta be Dunta Robinson or bust.

Leigh Bodden is regarded as the 2nd best CB on the market, and the Lions are probably the only team he wouldn't sign with.

[Wilfredo Ledezma]

One more note on Corey Williams, when he had 7 sacks, he was in a 4-3 in GB, once he got moved to Cleveland, he was in a 3-4. So the move back could be very beneficial.

If the scheme is what affected his numbers (which is plausible), than this could turn out to be a high reward move for Mayhew.

^ I was reading about the switch too. Maybe he could be fine in one system. Which gives me hope.

if we get kvb and suh, how would our d-line rate? front 7? gotta be atleast above avg, right?

i realize secondary is fucked pretty much under any scenario, but if we are strong up front an awful secondary wouldnt look quite as bad.

[Tahoe]

I want a LT 1st to protect our QB, but I'd like a partner for Delmas to help him out too. Whether thats a CB or S, I don't care. Just get him a partner back there.

i would think so...

DE - Corey Williams
DT - Ndamukong Suh
DT - Sammie Lee Hill
DE - Kyle Vanden Bosch

plus Avril & Hunter as situation rushers/OLB, use grady jackson for goall ine/4th & short

WLB - Ernie Sims
MLB - DeAndre Levy
SLB - Julian Peterson

that's well above-average if you ask me...perhaps even top 10 or 12 in the league

[Tahoe]

I think Levy can handle the middle but I'm not convinced yet.

me neither, i wish that was his natural position...

we don't need another paris lenon in the middle

[Tahoe]

If we can somehow get a stellar D line, it'd certainly help him. He's a speed guy, but if the bigs up front can stop the run, his speed would be great for covers, etc.

didn't he finish the season at high 220s?
