Miserable late year performance by Stafford. He basically cost Schwartz his job and the Lions a home playoff game. Inaccurate and a poor decision maker, many question if Matt will ever be a legit front line QB.
He has already made at least $73 million in his career and has at least 4 more under contract in Detroit. WIll he get the next coach fired as well?
Shaun Hill unrestricted free agent
The soon to be 34 year old will be a free agent. He should have some offers. Is Kellen Moore ready to be the back up?
Kellen Moore: 1 year left on contract
Showed tremendous improvement this preseason. His arm is much stronger and had a good handle on the offense. The big question is he ready to be the back up?
RB
Reggie Bush 223/1006/4 47% success rush 54/75 9 drops 506 yards 3td rec 4 fumbles lost
Rankings: PFF #32 FO 29/32 53 1st downs 42 broken tackles
3 year left contract
Looked great early in the season but struggled in the 2nd half. 4 lost fumbles and 9 dropped passes underscore his problems. In the Minnesota game it was evident he was not running hard. 277 touches in 14 games almost 20 a game is too much for Bush. He did double the amount of broken tackles by LeShoure in 2012.
Joquie Bell 166/650/8 51% success rush 53/66 6 drops 547 yards 54 1st downs 52 broken tackles
Rankings: PFF #9 FO 24/32 3 fumbles lost
Restricted Free Agent
A good year for Joique. Led the team in broken tackles for the 2nd year in a row. He had 52 this year 30 last year. Still lost 3 fumbles and dropped 6 passes. Should see plenty of action for the new coach in 2014.
Theo Riddick 9/25/1 td 5/8 27 yards 2 1st downs 2 broken tackles 1 drop 7 special teams tackles
3 years left on contract
Worked his way into the 3rd back this season. Showed some ability to run and catch. Solid special team guy.
Mikel LeShoure 2/9 rush
1 year left on contract.
Came in out of shape and fumbled in the preseason. Only carried the ball twice in 2013. Still under contract and has promised to come back in shape. If he plays like he did in the last 2 games of 2012 he has value. A fresh start is needed.
