Lions sign Levy

[alanclark]

The Lions and linebacker DeAndre Levy have agreed to terms on a new multi-year contract, according to league sources.

DeAndre Levy No. 41 out of 43 OLB in 4-3 defenses last year. Justin Durant ranked No. 18.

One less hole to fill. We'll see if they get Durant back too. Levy is younger and better in coverage but Durant is much better in run defense. Depends on the deal if this is a good move

 

[Mitchrapp]

Not sure I like it but better than taking one at 5.

 

[johnny2x2x]

Does this mean no Man'Tei and #5? Oh darn.

 

[alanclark]

Lions and LB DeAndre Levy have agreed to terms. I'm told it's a three-year deal.

 

[LKP]

I like the 3 years but the cap numbers are what really matter.

 

[zoombabyzoom]

What are the numbers any guesses?

3 yrs. 8mil

Way to over spend.

Haha I knew you would hate this. I thought you didnt' want Whitehead and Lewis to play. We'll see if Durant comes back.

Durant is the guy they should have kept but probably was going to cost more money. Or they just havent cemented his deal yet and they are bringing both back. Durant was head and shoulders better than missed tackle levy last year.

Durant and a rd 3 rookie would have been better than levy :/ oh well....

That's if you think Mayhew can draft a decent round 3 rookie.

 

[LKP]

He doesn't think Mayhew can draft well in the mid rounds
He didn't like Whitehead or Lewis
And he doesn't like Levy.

He's screwed on all angles

He's got a point.

Levy was a 3rd rounder. You just answered your own question...

I figured maybe he learned.

Meh. Levy is ok. Doesnt mean they wont go after a LB in April.
