Now that the Lions have made their fisrt big blunder,er move what do you think happens next. I say they sign Kevin Curtis. Cue the circus music.:nerd2:

I think we should draft a wide receiver with our first round pick!

Just because Charles Rogers and Mike Williams flamed out, shouldn't scare Millen away! The next Jerry Rice could be one selection away from becoming a Lion!

There was no way we could afford to let Redding get away. Redding is Rod's kind of guy.

Lets see if Redding is still Rod's kind of guy when he feels like the Lions have cheated him out of about 2 mil.

better than tagging backus

He's guaranteed to make a boatload more that he was! Just business talk.

I figure they will make a deal like they did with Backus-----just before the June 15th deadline for a longterm contract. It will also I figure not be that costly due to the inflating cap money that is continuing for the league.

Is Cory tag material? He's at least decent, but tag?
There's a WR that is 2 pick material, name escapes me. Don't want him. Give me beef.

Calvin Johnson is who you're thinking of.

yeah, he ran a 4.35 in borrowed shoes.

Yeah, I saw that. 6'5", 239 and runs a 4.35. Millen must be drooling over this kid.

I wonder if Vegas will put a line on that? It's gotta be even money.

In the Tampa 2 system, pressure from the UT spot is the most important thing in the whole defense. They can't let Redding move.
