Barry Sanders Riding Lion Bobblehead.

As someone who previously purchased a Detroit bobblehead from us, we wanted to let you know about the brand new Barry Sanders Riding Lion Bobblehead, which is scheduled to arrive around the end of this month.

Each bobblehead is individually numbered to 2,020 but only 144 bobbleheads were produced in the first batch so pre-order yours today if you want to add this awesome bobblehead to your collection.

Linebacker Wayne Walker Bridged Gap in Lions History.
Vintage Detroit

Only two players in Detroit Lions history played with Lion quarterbacks Bobby Layne and Greg Landry: Hall of Fame defensive lineman Alex Karras, and outside linebacker Wayne Walker.

Walker is often overlooked when you consider what he accomplished during his career on the gridiron. He held the team records for games played (200) and most seasons (15 from 1958 through 1972) until placekicker Jason Hanson surpassed him in those categories.
 
Frank Ragnow is one of the best draft picks in Lions HISTORY and it isn?t talked about enough.

Ragnow hasn?t allowed a sack in 405 days (week 8 of last season).

And has only allowed ONE sack in the past FOUR years.

Not only that, but over the course of his career, Ragnow has only allowed 7 sacks and 17 hits (5,016 snaps).

For reference, their are offensive linemen with over 7 sacks and 17 hits in just this season ALONE.

One of the best centers of ALL-TIME
