Detroit Lions Breakdown Podcast Episode #101: The Flowers have arrived. 53 minutes.
Free agency started with a bang on Monday as the Lions were one of the busiest teams in football. Bob Quinn added a lot of faces he is acquainted with and a couple that were a little more unexpected. Erik and Joe delve into it all in this episode.
The Lions send T.J. Lang off into the sunset, in the process saving over $8 million in salary cap space.
Lang has some nice things to say about the team, and it seems that he is thinking about retirement.
Nevin Lawson was also released by the team.
Trevor Bates was released.
The big move? Lions sign DL Trey Flowers to a 5-year $90 million deal, and the defensive line has had a complete overhaul over the last season.
WR Danny Amendola receives $4.5 million to become a Lion.
CB Justin Coleman inks a 4-year deal.
TE Jesse James signs a 4-year deal.
OL Oday Aboushi receives a 1-year deal.
Zach Zenner is back in the fold for a little over $1 million.
How much Salary Cap does the team have left.
What else does the team need, and how much of each position.
What free agents could still fit the Lions?
How were the Lions draft plans impacted by their free agency moves?
