Also i will never forgive the lions for picking terry fair. The next pick had the Vikings take randy moss. That pick wouldn't have changed anything but maybe him and barry could have gotten us past the wildcard round.

With Nevin Lawson being released, the Lions now have one draft pick from 2014 left on the roster — WR TJ Jones and Jones is expected to become a free agent this week.
Only five Martin Mayhew-drafted players are under contract with Detroit for 2019: Matthew Stafford, Darius Slay, Theo Riddick, Sam Martin and Quandre Diggs. Bob Quinn has completely overhauled the roster in three years.

Lions have nothing left from their 2014 NFL Draft class.
LionsWire

If the Lawson release is accurate, the Lions should have just north of $45 M in salary cap room
Factoring in the projected contracts for 2019 draft class = just over $41 M
Depending on how much BQ keeps for a in-season cushion, the Lions could comfortably spend up to $35 M.

Been a bit since mayhew era. Mayhew era won some games too.

Lawson was solid then regressed. Not worth backloaded year 2 of deal so gets the boot
 
Mayhew 2011-2015
39 wins 41 losses

Quin is 24 and 24. Hold your quinn praise and mayhew bashing
