Colvin to sign with the Lions??

[clumping platelets]

Looking for a link but it appears a radio station in Chicago is reporting that Colvin will sign a 5yr-$24.5 million deal tomorrow with the Lions. However, it's not confirmed as of yet

When we signed Posey, i threw out all hope of bringing in Colvin.

Wow..........I thought he would get better $$$ than Barber.

i did too for sure... but barbers deal is guarenteed to get him cut in 2 years.. it is back loaded as hell.. colvin may still be getting a better deal.

Detroit, eh! The Cincinatti of the NFC. Poor Colvin...

Colvin's getting a much better deal BTW if it's realistic to keep him for all 5 years, which I'm sure it is. It's probably a $6-8M SB leaving around $17M for salary over 5 years.

If Colvin went for that, then Spikes may go for only marginally more and Peterson will likely go for less. That's good for us.

That would be Arizona, actually.
