<p class="">The <a class="" href='https://twitter.com/hashtag/Lions?src=hash'>#Lions</a> are getting WR Marvin Jones, source said, for what is expected to be about $8M per year (as <a class="" href='https://twitter.com/diannaESPN'>@diannaESPN</a> said).

Another manziel video surfaces on TMZ.

You're right. And I did originally say "stranger things have happened"


Just IMO, I don't have much fear of them on this one.

  If this proves to be correct,  I'm surprised that new Lions G.M. Bob Quinn is investing this much in a WR,  even with Calvin Johnson's retirement and the need to compliment Golden Tate.   Quinn was in the Patriots organization for the previous 16 seasons and they rarely invested heavily in a WR.    Up to this point,  Quinn has been following a Patriots blue print.  Having said all of this,  Marvin Jones is probably the best WR option on the open market.

For a questionable #2. He's not even a #1. Maybe all the thumb suckers will back off the Chris ivory signing now(wishful thinking)

It just came across my Twitter feed that's why I posted. Could have to do with his impending release today. We should all just assume he's gonna mess up till he doesn't! Lol.
I dont like the other CB in Free Agency, Id go after Weddle and see what he offers but thats about it. 

@APMarkLong

Welcome to Duuuval, Olivier?

This is great.  Now we won't be hung out to dry for a week when a deal is signed.
Go get Oliver Vernon Jags!!! 

Yeah, transition tag really wasn't helping anyone.  Guessing today we'll know where he signs since he's the best pass rusher out there.

@AdamSchefter

Big free-agent signing: ESPN snares free-agent Matthew Hasselbeck, even though there now are a surplus of Hasselbecks here.


Hasselbeck is done jumping from team to team

<p class="">Vernon is the top pass rusher available. NYG, ATL, JAX, AZ among teams very interested in securing that need. He's just entering his prime

"Hey Olivier? Am I pronouncing that right? Sup.... I got all this money and no where to put it. Do you mind taking 100 mill of it?"
