| Stanton with a creepy fan |
Drew Stanton QB 5th Year
13 Games 4 Starts 30 Rushes 172 Yards 2 td 104/177/9 1058 5td Pass
2nd Round Draft pick in 2007. 3rd string QB.
Will he back? 50%. It depends on Zach Robinson. If the Lions like Robinson, good bye Drew.

Smith coughs one up |
Kevin Smith RB 4th Year
35 Games 25 starts 489/1848/12td rush 91/824/1 3 Fumbles Lost
3rd round pick in 2008. Never showed the burst to be a lead back in the NFL. Obviously could not stay healthy. Could maybe catch on as a 3rd down back
Will he back? 0%. We did not tender him as a restricted Free Agent.

| Clark thanks the maker for the UFL |
Brian Clark WR 6th Year
Free agent pick up 2010, cut during Training camp. Played in UFL. Resigned playing 4 games making 3 tackles on special teams.
Will he back? 10%. We did not tender him as restricted free agent. We need to find some youth at the 4th and 5th WR spots.
 |
| Gandy hopes no else can snap |
Dylan Gandy OG-OC 7th year
31 games 5 starts. Has been the back up center for 2 years. Has filled in at guard. Unless someone else can play center like Dan Gerberry. Gandy is valuable.
Will he back? 85%. Fills two roles. The Lions need to develop a young player to replace him.
 |
| DeVries takes the field at the Silverdome |
Jared DeVries DE 12th year.
117 games 32 starts 185 tackles 16.5 sacks 6 Force Fumbles 7 recovered.
A 3rd round pick in 1999. Has missed the last two seasons with a knee injury. Still has not retired.
Will he back? 0%. Too much depth at DE.
 |
| Turk will get big $$$$ this off-season |
Turk McBride DE
16 games 12 starts 60 tackles 6.5 sacks 4 Forced Fumbles. 1 Recovered.
Claimed off waivers in 2009. Became a force in 2010. He made himself some money.
Will he back? 50% He probably will get a chance to start somewhere else. He will rotate with Avril, KVB and LJ in Detroit
 |
Back to managing an apartment complex in Jersey |
Vinny Ciurciu LB 8th Year
19 games 15 tackles. Solid special team player. Not a good LB.
Will he back? 25% The Lions need to develop young players. Giving this spot to him would be a bad sign.
| I do not think a caption is needed |
Bobby Carpenter LB 6th Year
10 games 2 starts 30 tackles 2 pass defended.
Former 1st round pick, bounced around until signing with the Lions. They found out what he can do. Play in space, be a special teams guy and nickel LB. Will he back? 90% as a #5 LB.
 |
| LJ knocks out Rodgers |
Landon Johnson LB 8th year
12 games 8 starts 48 tackles 2 forced fumbles 1 recovered knocked out Aaron Rodgers.
Solid back up LB, who can play all three spots. Injuries are the question.
Will he back? 75% it is up to his health.
 |
| Julian finds out the Lions are better off with Ashlee Palmer |
Julian Peterson LB 12th Year
31 games 28 starts 160 tackles 5.5 sacks 5 Ff 3FR
Terrible year in 2010. Ashlee Palmer was an upgrade week 17 when Peterson was kicked off the team.
Will he back? 0%
 |
| He dropped this one |
Chris Houston CB 5th Year
15 starts 56 tackles 1 int 1 FF 12 PD
Solid # 2 CB. Not a take away guy. Can cover and tackles.
Will he back? 50% My gut is he will get a better offer someone else. That team will over pay him.
 |
Proof Tye Hill played for the Lions |
Tye Hill CB 6th year
4 games 1 start 3 tackles 1 dropped int.
Street FA during the season. Showed zero ability.
Will he back? 0% We did not tender him.

| Eric King tacks on 15. |
Eric King CB 7th year
7 games 1 start 16 tackles 1PD
I give him credit, cut during camp, came back late and played hard.
Will he back? 0% We cut him before the lockout.

C.C Brown 6th year
15 games 8 starts 46 tackles 1 FF
 |
| Wendling spears this guy |
John Wendling S 5th year
16 games 30 tackles
Pro bowl alternate for special teams. Not a prospect at safety. Can really cover kicks.
Will he back? 60%. Looking for a safety spot elsewhere.

| Ended the streak |
David Rayner K 7th year
8 games 13/16 fg 16/16xp 2 tackles
Showed he was an NFL Kicker in 2010. Hanson will be 41.
Will he back? 50% Will we cut Hanson?
