Lions Release Kevin Barnes, Pick Up CB Jerome Murphy

[specialteamz]

Per rotoworld

Drafted one selection ahead of S Amari Spievay in the 2010 NFL Draft. Cut by the Rams during preseason and then lasted a couple weeks on the Saints. Usually when the Lions trade for or pick up a player from another team, I go see what the other teams fans have been saying about them. Looks like Rams fans were pretty upset they cut Murphy: http://forums.prosportsdaily.com/showthread.php?t=758309

He got cut from a shitty defense like NO says a whole bunch. I didn't even know we had Barnes.

I know that guys like this are for the most part scrubs, but it's still nice to see them proactive about the situation. Also young corners sometimes take a few years so I'm okay with taking a flyer on a former third round pick.

Twentymen said that we will not have to give Washington the conditional draft pick because Barnes was waived.

Barnes played 14 snaps against the 49ers after Florence went down. That's how injured we were.

Berry(own stupidity), Greenwood(PUP), Houston and Bentley, Delmas all were hurt at same time from what the Lions planned. Thank goodness at least Houston and Bentley both are back practicing. Also thank goodness we don't play a good passing team until after the bye.

Speaking of snaps, how many die Reiff have?

James Harrison was cut 437 times by two different teams.....what's your point?

That Murphy is a piece of crap? I thought that was rather obvious.

That might be true. It might not. A lot of people must have thought the same of Harrison....he was cut 4 times.

How bout you see him play before deciding that. The only people as close minded as you are racists and my ex-wife. You sound like you could be both!

Usually racists have a reason or a certain incident behind their madness. The same can probably be said about your ex wife.
