Young defenses always need a vet presence when things eventually get tough come November and December. He may not contribute much on the field besides rotational depth, but could have a good impact in the locker room. 

If the price is right and he's a good locker room guy, I say do it. He does have a SuperBowl ring, which I don't think anyone on our roster has. Would remind me of the Jared Allen/Roman Harper signings.

He always been a athletic freak that could not stop free-lancing, now hes also aged some. 

D is playing at the level where LBs dont matter and I want to add LBs (now&future). I just dont think he is a good "fit" for this young group that stick to Snows plan. Collins never followed his assignments, but he had reddick-like freak numbers to cover up mistakes. Even goat Bill could not get him to follow orders. 

Only if injuries hit, other-wise pass......unless lions want to pay most of salary and add a draft pick to take him....

Was gonna post this yesterday, as the Lions held him out if practice while they pursued a trade...  but, from what I saw, the Pats and Rams are the only real suitors.  

Dan Campbell still refers to him as an athletic LB, but apparently there has been a question with his effort, so they're playing younger guys in front of him and looking to move him.

I thought initially it would be a good fit, but the more I have thought on it, I think Rhule believes in the guys he has here and would rather grow with them then bring in someone else at this point - other than kicker of course.😂

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.

      I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.

      Joe Person Draft Weekend inside info

      Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
