 It's a good indicator of the improvement of the Jaguars roster when 4 players released get claimed by other teams.

 

 My thoughts on the Lions claiming Thurston Armbrister is the combination of the Kyle O' Brien and Al Golden connections.   Golden is the Lions TE Coach and was Armbrister's college coach at the U.   Also, with former University of Florida, Bears, and Patriots LB Jon Bostic very likely heading to Short Term I.R.  and Josh Bynes dealing with an injury,  the Lions needed another LB.   That much more one who can contribute heavily on Special Teams.

 

 As for Arthur Brown,  the Jags system might prove to be a better fit than the 3-4 he played in with the Ravens.   Brown was certainly a player on my radar screen when I reviewed all of the NFL cuts from the last couple of days.
