    Lions need a DT. Lions have a surplus at WR. We've been kicking ass and taking names for about 24 hours now. Can we swing this?

    I want Roy Williams! Let the off-season domination continue!

    I'd prefer to keep drob if possible. He would give us a tremendous amount of flexibility being able to play 3-4 DE or NT as well as 4-3 DT when we mix that in. He can also help Jenkins transition from 4-3 DT to 3-4 NT. If we can keep him we should. I understand there are cap implications that may prevent us this luxury.

    It'd be nice to have him in the rotation...but the cap is the problem.

    I think the coaching staff wants him to restructure his deal, but why would he? He's supposed to make an insane amount of money this season.

    He has to be moved...hopefully we can recoup the picks we used in the Jenkins trade.

    I would think the 3rd and 5th they got from Cincy would be more likely.

    If we could swindle Roy Williams out of the Lions for DeWayne I'd probably shit myself. That would be a coup!

    Wouldn't that be amazing? We'd upgrade our DT from out-of-place player to total pro bowl stud by moving down three spots in the third and fifth rounds? That would surpass the TJ trade, BY FAR.
