2011 Lions offseason

[Tahoe]

Corner Back Schmorner Back. We need LBers.

I would accept Bobby Carpenter as a starter if he could play the way he played the last few games. He'd even be a good one.

Ashlee Palmer also flashed some good play at the end of the year, but both could just be flashes in the pan. I expect both back on the team, and I would also think it to be very Schwartz/Mayhewish to let them battle for one of the jobs. I don't expect Follett to be back at all, as his situation is one in which the disc is too close to the spine to operate on. The only chance he has is if the disc retracts. That being said, we're going to need another starter, and it doesn't look like there's any worthy candidates in the first round. Mason Foster is a name I would like in the late 2nd or 3rd. Akeem Ayers' name gets thrown around in the first, but if you watch some film you might agree with me that he's very soft for a dude that's 6-4, 250.

Chris Houston is an unrestricted free agent, so if he goes, we're going to need two good ones, not just one. CB is a need. I'm tired of those guys getting trucked on the edge. Alphonso Smith belongs in the nickel.

I don't expect us to heavily pursue o-line.
