Yet some of them still leave...I dont know what the Lions offered Zeitler if anything, but he took a one year deal to play for one of the worst teams in the NFL.....I think most of us thought he would be back.

He got a 1 yr $9mm deal with the Titans, most of which is guaranteed. That was about $3mm more than he got from the Lions last season.

Zeilter leaving isn't that big of a deal, he didn't impress me much last year, and isn't he 35.

They can draft a starting guard and Mhagony or however you spell it looked better than Glascow

[Mainevent]

Zeitler was a beast last year. But $9M is a lot and he apparently has family in Tennessee .

[froot loops]

Yeah, if you weren't impressed by Zeitler you couldn't have been watching. PFF had him graded at 86.4. But he didn't play in the playoffs and might have been an injury risk going forward

[chemiclord]

Zeitler is definitely a loss. Hopefully Mahogany can fill those shoes... but ya know, I think he can.

[Sanders Fan]

I’d rather they spend the money on defense.

Keep feeding that oline. Draft and develop.

Really wanted to see a DE addition via FA. A zadarius smith type could give aiden a breather.

It’s just that I was hoping Mahogany would replace Glasgow and Zeitler back for one more year. Now if they want to have competition for Glasgow, they have to draft somebody very early.

And G is not that deep. The unknowns here are Sorsdal and Manu....how much they have improved

[froot loops]

I think it.would be shocking to see Manu line up at guard.

[Mainevent]

TJ Lang seems to think they might give it a shot.

I wasn't thinking about Manu at G. But what do the Lions think about him will make an impact in the draft. Decker is getting older and showed some age signs last year (so did Glasnow). Now the draft does have some very nice tackle prospects. I do think the Lions will take an edge, DL and OL in the top 3 picks (not for sure in that order). Whether that is a G/T depends on what they think of the guys buried deep that we have seen, at best, limited game action.

[froot loops]

Manu has that kick step, you don't waste that at guard.
