Jason Jones is a gamer. He has plenty of moves- would have had more sacks but he was kind of misused in Bradley’s scheme as a DT on third downs. Wish my Hawks would sign him because I don’t like all the older pass rushers out there with the big names and decline production.

And with the Lions’ cap space, they will offer Jones a contract paying $23,000/yr, with escalating roster bonuses of free Ford oil change coupons..

Just because you haven’t heard the rumors doesn’t mean they aren’t trying to upgrade secondary. As for breaking 8-8, you don’t do it by making “splash” fa signings…

Makes perfect sense, the most blindingly glaring need is quality DBs…. 1st rumor of a signing is a DE…. all is well if he’s cheaper than Avril I guess.

Please at least attempt to update the secondary this year…. i’m not talking “we drafted some no name 347th rounder who got injured but has pro-bowl potential”.

Take a run at Smith, Grimes….. even Hall or Nhamdi….. anyone, please!!!!!

Wish Seattle would resign him.

Good start Mayhew but its going to take a whole lot more than Jason Jones to break 8-8.

Where’s the splash?

Ditto everything for William Hayes (Titans 4th rounder in ’08). Lions interested in him as well, per MLive.

One of the best DE’s against the run, something Detroit needs and Avril severly lacked.
