PrintSing it with me: "Oh, we're halfway there / Oh oh, livin' on a prayer..."
Okay, so we're not exactly livin' on a prayer, but the Lions are basically halfway done with getting their rookies under contract. Jason Fox signed last Friday, Willie Young signed on Monday and now third-round pick Amari Spievey is on the verge of signing, according to John Niyo.
Lions agree to terms on three-year deal with rookie CB Amari Spievey, their third-round pick.
With Spievey agreeing to a deal, we are left with Ndamukong Suh, Jahvid Best and Tim Toone as the only rookies without a contract. Toone's deal shouldn't be tough to get done considering he was the final pick of the draft, but I would imagine that we will have to be a bit more patient with Suh and Best.
UPDATE: Spievey should officially sign his deal in the next 24 hours.
UPDATE II: The Lions have announced both the Spievey and Willie Young signings.

Wow, that
is great news, now let’s moveon to get the two big dogs signed. I agree, Toone should be relatively easy to get done. Good job Sean.
Probably because he can't comprehend the contract he's handing out.... lol
We’re gonna get word that Suh signed a contract for like $200 million. Lewand will wake up, shake off the hangover and realize what he just did… lol.
I'm buying " one " round !
Oops, that should be First Rounders will cost how much ? Glad to see the pieces falling into place. Damn, half the year is gone. I’m ready for some football, American style !!!

Suh don't concern me much he and mccoy should be paid fairly close together
But with guys like AD and CJ2k how much will spiller and Best look to get paid….that concerns me a little

Will have NO effect on Best’s deal. They’re established top tier runners. Best is still a draft choice. Draft position has more to do with his deal. Once a few first rounders sigh, the dominoes will start to fall.
Another one down....

Just sayin’.
He is from Jersey
So that would be very fitting.

would'nt suprise if he was on opening day
Because that’s how bad we are at that position a 3rd round rookie could run away with it.

I could see...
Houston and Spievey being a huge improvement to our CB’s last season. I Think P. Buchanon is a solid corner, but he didn’t fit our system. We need physical guys that can jam recieivers and give our dline enough time to rush the QB. I think our defense could be one of the huge surprises this year, not only for the Lions, but for the whole league.

Yeah baby, there's hope yet.
The Lions signed another kicker from Ohio State. Aaron Pettrey.
As much as they want to give Hansen the respect he deserves, they realize that he’s washed up and are trying to ease him on out gracefully.
Nope they got the Left footed reps they needed.
Th Lions being a high class organization let the left footer continue his CFL career and released him in time to start the CFL season.
Spuhvey
Spievey, Suh, and Delmas. Now that’s scary.
Don't sing it unless you can bring it!
