Bentley deal done

[Monster]

ALLEN PARK -- Detroit Lions' third-round pick Bill Bentley has agreed to a four-year contract with the team, leaving only first-round selection Riley Reiff not under contract.

Bentley, a former Louisiana-Lafayette cornerback, is expected to compete for a starting job opposite Chris Houston in the Lions' secondary.

The 5-foot-10 Bentley registered 66 tackles and three interceptions for the Ragin' Cajuns last season.

Bentley joins Ryan Broyles, Ronnell Lewis, Chris Greenwood, Tahir Whitehead, Jonte Green and Travis Lewis as the draft picks the Lions have signed to contracts.

throw him to the fire and see how he does. start him on the outside with berry or phons inside.

Looks like ESPN is now saying they made an error when they reported we signed Reiff.
