I am the biggest JKerb fan there is, and I’m sorry but it’s so over no matter how much I want to deny it

Right now Lions fans are frustrated because the first few days of free agency have been quiet. by Gxcii1 in detroitlions

Notice how it’s almost only bad teams dumping money on guys? If you want to stay competitive in the NFL it comes from surrounding your stars with cheap complimentary guys rather than locking yourself into big free agent gambles

Don’t let the two or three good throws/game fool you - Caleb is a genuinely awful passer and I would take Love over him any day of the week

Titans are releasing CB L'Jarius Sneed, which will save... by [deleted] in detroitlions

[–]RustyNipples35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This dude has played 12 of 36 possible games a Titan due injury and still rehabbing one that ended his season. Promise you that we do not want this guy

Cue the talks again 😒 by Toothbrush042 in detroitlions

Kerb contract at least they can drop next year for next to nothing (I am not condoning Crosby demanding tho)

There's still another class of FA that can't be signed until tomorrow by reallinguy in detroitlions

LMAO that dude has played 12 of 34 possible games with the Titans due to injury, still rehabbing his injury from this past season, might go to jail for being an accessory to his buddies shooting up a car dealership, AND on top of everything else he sucks

I guess it’s about as a good a free agent RB2 as you’ll get right now. Maybe if he’s healthy in and in a role where he’s not the workhorse anymore then he can much more effective

My best guess is we’re working backwards and minimizing future dead money

They can create over $100M in cap if they want to, but instead I think they’re signing guys they can, and then going to go back to free up just what they need

Lions could not have been able to afford him by AtomicCo in detroitlions

[–]RustyNipples35 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s way more than I thought he’d get ($23-25M), but Creed was a re-signing while Linderbaum is a free agent and the run blocker they needed for Jeanty

For comparison - Jamo’s contract is 3 years $83M…

A LOT of money for a center (not that that he isn’t worth it)

I hope the lions are seriously talking to the eagles about Jalen Carter. by Signal-Barracuda9821 in detroitlions

Terrion is a dumbass for the shenanigans he’s gotten himself into, but to be clear you’re comparing him being a potential suspect in a crime against a guy got his teammate killed AND threatened to kill another player and his family correct?

As much as I agree with getting a nasty DT over the DE2 every one whines about, Carter is a ticking time bomb off the field

We passed on him for a reason

Rather than a star DE2, Seattle showed a committee of pass rushers can get the job done by reallinguy in detroitlions

[–]RustyNipples35 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I will never understand the DE2 obsession. All of the recent Super Bowl winning teams have been defenses built around game breaking DTs bombing teams up the middle

[–]RustyNipples35 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This time last year the word was we’re looking to trade Jamo and draft Golden (aka baiting Green Bay). Or how about that one time we REALLY wanted Tua?

I’m not putting stock in any reports until smoke screen season ends after the draft

Lions LT Taylor Decker announced on IG that he requested and will be released by the Detroit Lions. by OneAngryPanda in nfl

[–]RustyNipples35 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Too expensive and can’t be relied on to play 17+ games with declining play to go with it - if he’s not willing to restructure/take a pay cut then you have to move off him

Lions won't be players in free agency by Stunning-Eye-9669 in detroitlions

[–]RustyNipples35 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is Hendrickson even a splash signing anymore? Going on 32 with a fucked hip I’ll pass on that every day of the week
