Marcus Pollard and Kennoy Kennedy on the same day, very very nice.
:prays for health of WR core:

If any team is due for good luck, it's the Lions.

They're looking at Jeff Garcia and Brad Johnson to backup Harrington, then drafting a 3rd option seems likely. Either is a quality backup for sure.

i hope harrington pans out this year, if not id move on if i were the lions. they have a great group of young wrs and a rb w/ lots of potential to be awesome, i hope a underachieving qb doesnt sink this ship. who knows though, maybe we'll see garcia's carreer have a rebirth in det.

Garcia still lacks arm strength kind of a pity with those recievers. Geez if Detroit can keep Rogers healthy though with Garcia starting and running that offense like he did in SF, the Lions could be very good offensively. They even have Az Hakim to strech the field from the slot opening up quick ins for williams and rogers Kevin Jones is a great back. I just wonder about that defense.

Just signed Kennedy to help out Dre Bly in the secondary, hopefully they go for D in the draft. They could use an end and some LBs.

He's a free agent.

Boss Bailey will be back next year, which will help them significantly in the LB spot. Don't forget, Teddy Lehman played pretty damn well for them last year. As for ends, they have Edwards who is only in his second year and James Hall in his fourth (former Wolverine).

The signing of Kennedy was huge. They'll probably cut Brock Marion, who proved to be too slow last year. Kennedy, with Bly, Walker, Holt and Bryant, may be a good, quick, hard-hitting nickle package.

This was one of the best signings so far this year. I was hoping the Packers would sign Kennedy. :cry:

So he's basically an older version of Joey Harrington then?

What the hell...is there something about this guy that NFL teams see that I don't? Whenever he's been in a game, he's produced. I don't know why the Lions haven't given him a chance, and I don't know why nobody has signed him yet.
