Lions free agency: Recap of what Detroit has done so far

Unlike in 2012, the Detroit Lions have been one of the most active teams in NFL free agency this year. They not only have re-signed several of their own free agents, but they've added a few noteworthy free agents from other teams as well. They've also had a player retire, adding to the craziness of free agency. To say the least, things have been hectic since free agency opened last Tuesday.
