Conflicting reports, as Dave Burkett was saying the lions offered him what they gave Montgomery.

Define big cap hit. Honestly. Cap hit this year of 2.5 with a 224.8M cap is 1.1% of the cap. Next year the cap projects at 256M. 7.3 is 2.8% of the cap. So more than double, sure, but we are talking less than 3 percent for a starter. This simply isn’t a big cap hit. Is it more than he is worth? Sure, but the cap hit is minor.

This kind of money? Come on, this isn’t a large contract and that’s before we even seen the guaranteed money! At a $6M avg your talking 2.6% of your teams cap on a starter or first off the bench guy who is widely respected in the locker room and who obviously improved with the rest of the defense as the season went on. And it’s likely the lions will only be committed to two years. Let’s stop pretending like he just got some ridiculous about of money.

I find it so funny that people get bent out of shape of marginal NFL contracts before they even see the structure. I’m guessing it won’t be hard to get out after 1 or 2 years for the lions. There was never a doubt they wanted Alex back if you followed this team at all. The LB market isn’t exactly strong and the bears just gave out $50M guaranteed for the least important defensive position. This is simply a meh type move, nothing exciting or aggravating about it.

$18M for Anazalone seems about right. Guessing the guarantee will be around $10-12M. Need depth at LB and the Lions love him as a leader. There was never a doubt he was coming back.

Didn’t even show up in the biggest game in 7 years. Same old lions 100%. So much for all that talk.

Don’t tell me we don’t need to draft a QB. You ain’t ever winning with Goff.

Biggest concern is they brought zero effort. Didn’t even care about winning

Frauds the whole way.

On to the draft.

Stfu.

Good thing Campbell punted. That guy just surrendered.

This effort level is unacceptable. They aren’t even trying.

Goff, not the answer. Ugly fucking football today. Wow. So much on the line and it’s a no show.

Pretty revealing quarter from the lions. Looked very fraudulent there. Fumble inside the 10 and then give up a 91 yard drive with zero resistance. Where is the fight?

What a face plant by this defense. Horrible preparation. Not taking it personal, every man is being beat.

Same ole lions on full display. Wow.

There’s Jarod Goff. That’s our guy.

Stop running the ball! Jesus.

We just cannot run the ball.

Ok D. Your move.

Don’t know why we still try and run. The OL has lots its ability to run block that last month.

Big play to chark! Where was the flag??

Same ole lions lol. What an embarrassment. Not ready to start, blown off the line.

Game!!
