***shaking head in total confusion***

so WHEN they drop the guy from the roster and he still counts 635k against the cap, will the defenders of this signing still say, "smart move mayhew, good signing!" or will they finally admit that the money would have been better allocated to another position/player?

tate, Pettigrew, tapp, Ihedgehbodododoooo, danO....

I still like my 2 options better....peppers and DRC. Sorry youre stuck with mayhew lions fans....
 
I don't like the signing either, but he's a backup and cheap as fuck. Look at this way...name me one backup in the entire NFL you would trust leading our Lions. Backups are what they are...BACKUPS. Your QB goes down, you're fucked anyways.

I think it's more of 'if the backup is going to be useless why not draft a guy who might surprise'. Granted they might do that anyway but then you just wasted a few hundred k..though I'm not sure what you could do with the money anyway..

As long as they don't bring Millen back as a special advisor or something.

What are you talking about? it counts 125k against the cap if he's cut.

You forgot Raiola and bell.

Peppers would be for one year. His cap jumps to 12 million next year with 5 million dead. Have to match or best that. Sorry impossible

Rodgers chromatid jumps to 7.2 million. He is equal to Houston. Had some good years but drc had some really really shitty years too. Give me bell, pettigrew long term over drc and definitely a cheaper tate
 
he didnt save much with dan,, but the rule has been used nicely on some of the others

He saved 1 million compared to hill. And signing dano doesn't prevent us from making another vet min deal. You can have up to 90 players and deals like da no got don't really affect the cap more than 100 k.

Oh.....while we're playing pretend.....I would have liked Jimmy Graham, Byrd, DJax, Tate, trading Suh for the Rams first two picks and reworking CJ's and Staffs contracts for 10 years and $10M each.

You just throwing out you idiotic fantasy wishes about Peppers and DRC, with ZERO proof that.....

1. They had any interest in coming here.
2. Mayhew didn't try to get them here.
3. It was at all possible with the cap situation.

.....is hilarious.

You and my 2 year old would have a great play date.....when are you available?

3. they have low cap numbers numb nuts....what we signed costs more then they do. atleast ur right about one thing...Stafford is only worth about 10 mil.

1. if ur telling me peppers would rather go to a 3-4 defense (something hes never played in....ever) and play next to bj raji instead of coming to Detroit and playing next to suh.....then mayhew blows at his job.

2. Mayhew didn't try to get them here....

This is why Detroit continues to suck.....fucking idiots like booger keep making excuses for being shitty.

link telling me he tried to get them here? I can show you a link where he doesn't even pick up the phone if youd like one....

why the fuck would there be a story about a gm not trying to get players? youre such a fucking moron lol.

On the contrary, if he reached out to a player or a players' rep then there would be a story about it. Apparently, ur too dumb to understand how FA works....

That's what I thought.

Try backing something you say up with something other than...."fucking Mayhew".

Ok, tons a fun?

Look at year 2 buddy. Tate, pettigrew and bell are long term at a good price. Drc is not worth 7 million a year and peppers 12 million the lions can't afford year 2. Stick to the draft Hughes, you are clueless on contracts and the cap
 
Yeah it's okay not to make an offer for a guy or even to show interest if you know you can't afford him. No way Peppers was coming here. You can talk about lack of cap but no chance Peppers was coming here..

Suh is here to stay and peppers will be 100 years old. Wanting peppers is just beyond dumb especially at that price
