The Lions are holding another OTA today. I believe the entire team -- both veterans and rookies -- will practice together for the first time next week. Even though Grady Jackson will likely be a starter at defensive tackle, don't expect him to get a ton of playing time based on what Gunther Cunningham said . He is probably going to be more of a situational player. Kevin Smith isn't backing down from...

There were no bright spots in the 2008 Lions season, except that it ended. Predictably, coaches were fired, players were released and the arduous task of rebuilding is now underway. (Although, to be fair, Detroit has been rebuilding for the entire decade, but that was part of some Matt Millen master plan gone horribly wrong.)Whatever, change is on the way, as they say. New head coach Jim Schwartz...

The Lions have announced the signing of defensive tackle Grady Jackson. According to Steve Wyche, the deal is worth $8 million over three years . Many have questioned this signing, saying that Jackson is "washed up," but it's not like the Lions spent a ridiculous amount of money. Besides, there generally isn't much guaranteed money in a deal like this, so if he turns out to be a waste of...
