Not sure what this feedback is supposed to mean. Yes not sure. Big Dan Campbell didn't view him as clutch which is why he made some questionable choices in playoffs. He had no confidence in kicking game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which MCDC has shown a habit of following with and without Badgley being the kicker. Edited February 25 by Nnivolcm 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is well-deserved. He played lights-out on special teams and as a rotational LB. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He deserves it for telling Iffy to get on the ground after he intercepted at the end of the vikings game on Christmas Eve. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karnage84 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 I like this move a lot. Solid move by Brad Holmes and co. paying their guy. He played much better at LB than any of us expected when he joined as a FA. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's very good on ST but also plays some really meaningful snaps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nagahide13 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 It looks like Sneed is going to get a non-exclusive tag. I don't envision a world in which we trade any assets for him on top of a new contract, so I think he's likely out of our pool of available players.

I suspect that Bears CB Jaylon Johnson will get similar treatment. Chicago has the 2nd most cap space. They can absorb a big contract or the franchise tag. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrLionzz Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 I am hoping to end up with either Allen, Burns, Hunter, Greenard, or Armstrong at DE. Allen can't be Tagged, pair him with Hutch and look out, the amount of pressure the two would create would make up for the secondary issues for now but that needs to be addressed as well, Fuller, Gilmore, Fulton, Johnson, there are some good ones out there. This is a huge FA class and it's only gonna make the Lions better, now finally players are gonna want to come here for a chance at a title, We don't need a RB but this market is loaded with young top-tier talent 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a huge number. He'd be a great signing for the Titans - they have the #1 cap space and they'd be stealing him from a division rival. They just added a new HC. That'd be a splash to get some juice going in-house. Greenard is probably going back to the Texans after such a good year. I would do this if I were him and they have the money to make a deal work. Hunter is also a big-money guy at $24M APY and it'd be hard to spread his cap hit out. Guys like Epenesa and Armstrong are probably more likely options for us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Tso Posted February 28 Author Share Posted February 28 Don't be surprised when we sign a guy like Zadarius Smith for 2 years and draft a DE along with developing the Canadian guy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's another guy that is likely a better option for us. His OTC projection is $9M. This isn't exactly a "light bulb" moment kind of thing but the reality is that NFL rosters turn over almost 100% every 3 years. So Holmes and co. likely look at building out the foundations via the draft and then just fill in the gaps with veteran players on these short-term contracts as opposed to signing high-priced UFA's to multi-year deals.

Just Want A Title Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 I mocked Dorance Armstrong Jr to the Lions. He seems like a more affordable option 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nagahide13 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Maybe Leonard Floyd. Z has kind of a weird reputation and seems to piss a lot of teams off. I'd guess we're going to stay away from anyone "major" since we still have to extend Hutchinson, ARSB, McNeill etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
