Brown deal voided

[mhughes0021]

Found this on The Den message board, Harrison apparently has a brain tumor. Terrible news

ummm...thats fucked up. good thing we tried to trade him or else maybe he would have found out too late...

Heck is Aaron Brown still around. Sign him back up.. At least he knows the play book. Seems like we are getting pretty desperate at running back..

This feels like old time Lions luck...thought we were done with this shit. Jerome, get better. Beat that thing. Cancer is an asshole...

No thanks. He's no NFL player.

Let's be honest, would he even have made a difference here?

I know we'll never know what could've been but my money's on not much.

Maybe. Certainly more than Harrison who doesn't play at all.

Well, Brown didn't play for his team either.

A. Brown fits the short term need of a back catching the ball out of the backfield, he was good at it. M Morris & K Williams can handle running the ball

The Lions running game was bad before Best went out....it is bound to be worse now. If the Lions are to win vs. Atl it will have to be a shootout.

You guys can have Tashard Choice. Well could have if Felix wasn't a piece of glass.

 

[beez]

Just off the top of my head (not sure if they're free agents or not)....

Fred taylor
Julius Jones
Dom Rhodes
Kareem huggins
L.Maroney
Kevin Smith

Not sure if any would make a difference but I think a couple of those guys could be ok. If Maroney is around n healthy he could be worth a shot.

Logan will see some increased time.

The point was a trade for Brown meant playing time for Brown or otherwise why trade? I'm sure they weren't going to trade for Brown and put him into the same role as harrision, holding up the bench. So it was likely he'd get playing time here.

 

[biggunsbob]

Well the Lions just have to circle the wagons and adapt.. They tried to draft for a complement to Best and he got hurt so we just need to go hurry up and try to bury teams early. I know easy said then done ut man there is just garbage on the wavier wire for Running backs.. Damn.

no joke if westbrook was in shape i would mind paying him the minimum to see what he has left in the tank. He looked great at san fran still last year.

He has my vote, cant be any worse. he should be good for 30-60 YPG like our other backs

 

[tsmith7559]

Danny Diggler[/color]]Drew Stanton and some sparty gear for Ronnie?

trade deadline is over......????

Remember Morris rushed for over 100 yds in one of our late season victories last year, I think we will be fine if Best is back by the week after the BYE if not , we may need more help.
