Per twitter.

On cornerbacks: Patriots are in on Chris Houston. Derek Cox is scheduling visits, but nothing with Pats at the moment. They called Saturday.
 
I know right?!?

Of all the teams to have to compete with. This already bad secondary will take a HUGE step back if we lose Houston.

HUGE.


agreed..pretty much 1 of the only teams that vets chack their ego at the door and even take alot less money to play for.

Hope Mayhew and Schwartz know something I don't about Green/Greenwood/Bentley because the thought of running those three out there is becoming more and more of a reality.....and Bartell and whatever 3rd or 4th tier FA we sign isn't going to help much.

SOOOOOOOOOO risky drafting a project that high. He could be the next JPP.

My opinion?

I think it would be a good move. Explosive player. Seems like his game will translate well to the next level. Seems solid against the run....something we certainly didn't get with Avril. The Lions actually have a pretty good recent history of getting max production out of their DL.....so I would be happy with the pick.

I would project him to get right around 55 tackles and 9 sacks. Just my opinion.

Rather have Milliner though.

ya...Milliner has been my guy from jump....better then expected run at the combine though probably has him gone before 5 though

and I read he knocked his interviews outta the park in Indy.

Unless they land Revis, seems we'll have to jump Philly to get him......which would probably cost us our 2nd round pick.......thats too high of a price to pay for a team needing cheap talent.
 
NE wont be able to pay him. SO Houston will have to decide between winning and not making much in NE or going for the most money he can find....which wont be much cause of the cb market this year. I think he signs with us for about 5 mil per year.

Hope he stays.....

Hope you're right.....

Hope Philly lands Revis too.

Beep beep beep.....here comes the team with the brinks truck swooping in! If anyone was going to give Houston more than 5 mil it might be Miami. uh oh.....

Chris Houston - DB - Lions Free agent CB Chris Houston is on the Dolphins' "radar," according to the Miami Herald, and the Dolphins have also "made inquiries" about free agent CBs Antoine Cason and Captain Munnerlyn.
The Dolphins also "called about" Greg Toler before he signed with the Colts. Miami still has $20 million in salary cap space following Tuesday's mad rush of signings, and secondary help is next up for GM Jeff Ireland to prioritize. Related: Dolphins

20 mil after their signings today lol...crazy. got Wallace wheeler and a couple others and still have 20 mil. just released one of their lbs so they probably have even more now.
 
with the $ they have, phins might be more likely to go after aso. nothing to base this after other than my own opinion tho, along with hopes houston will stay a lion.
 
or maybe make trade to get revis??? that would be a smart move by phins to get Revis as it means Wallace isn't essentially negated in 2 games each year and Wallace gets to face the best in practice to get even better.
 
Nfl.com is reporting that houston is staying and they're working on a 3yr deal. If we can keep him and sign one of the guys scheduling visits (bush showed up in a white limo and stafford is already there), i'd call it a win.
