Lions re-sign Backus and Hill

After Losing Drew Stanton to the Jets and losing out on OT Eric Winston to the Chiefs, the Lions re-sign two of their own.

OT Jeff Backus re-upped for 2 years at $10 mil.

2 more years for Jeff

2 years as well for QB Shaun Hill.

Shaun Hill gets a 2 year deal

I believe the Lions will try re-sign LB Stephen Tulloch to a deal averaging around $4 million
per season.

Tulloch praying for $6 mil a year

Losing Eric Wright, Drew Stanton, and possibly Andre Fluellen will give the Lions at least 2 compensatory picks. Likely a 4th and a 7th.

Losing Wright to Tampa could net us a 4th round pick
