Louis Friend Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 They cut Armonty Bryant as well. This signing doesn't make much sense to me unless they feel like he's a better fit in a 4-3. I'm not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blew up Chicago's OL on a play but was called for a facemask. He made one tackle last week. I think he'll be part of the rotation going forward.

Louis Friend Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 The move never made sense to me. I don't mind this. But we cut three DL and got Brad Kaaya back from the Panthers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimbaWho Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 It's a long shot, but I wish the Lions would make a serious offer/run at DE Dwight Freeney. Losing Ngata is huge, honesty, he playing better than A'Shawn Robinson(in the run game) and was allowing LB's, and DE's to roam free. Caraun Reid I think can provide something but he's not what Ngata was. With the Rodgers injury GB is basically giving the North to either the Lions or Vikings with us having a 1 up on the Viks. Lions need to amass some play makers for down the stretch and Freeney can still be effective as a pass rush specialist. Ansah/Freeney/Zettel could provide a really good pass rush, and provides some depth in injury's occur. I'm way more willing to take the flier on Freeney with his track record than Jacquies Smith, Jones, and etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
