Update from the NFLPA, the Lions apparently only have $3.25 million in cap space right now, the second-fewest amount in the NFL. It?s not exactly clear why Detroit?s cap number dropped $5 million overnight, though it?s like due to the addition of the T.J. Lang contract.

Defensive end Derek Rivers meets with Detroit Lions at his Pro Day.
Draft analyst Tony Pauline reports that the Youngstown State pass rusher has met with the Detroit Lions.
PrideOfDetroit

Derek Rivers, who measured 6037 and 249 ponds and met with the Detroit Lions last night, re-ran the short shuttle and timed 4.39s, slightly better than his combine mark.
Greene ran most of Rivers? drills, and the defensive end/outside linebacker looked terrific not only rushing the passer but also dropping into space. He was smooth flipping his hips and effortlessly moved about the field. Much of this comes from the fact Rivers played tight end in high school and is comfortable moving in all directions.
