Another heads up move by the Lions...

This video is the high point of the Lions season last year, so what is Millen going to do? Trade Shaun Rogers. How could you trade this guy? Plays like this are why we watch football. What you gonna get Millen? A third round pick? Looking for another WR?

They need to free up some cap space for Dante Stallworth, Brandon Lloyd, Bernard Berrian and the four WRs they're going to draft.

Brutal, MMMan. I empathize.

Wide receivers are like pairs of black shoes; you can never have too many!

If that's the case Jess, then the Detroit Lions are the Imelda Marcos of the NFL.

Bazing!

I read that Millen wants to trade him because of a "weight problem". Weight problem? He's a nose tackle! Oh my god, he can't outrun Selvin Young (35 in the video) but he sure as hell can stiff arm his ass to the ground. I think the Lions should pull a "Refrigerator" and put Rogers in the backfield. No, forget "the refrigerator" or "the bus" - Shaun "the freight train" Rogers. According to a Fox special I watched "the train always wins."

Update: Rogers was traded to the Bengals for.... a third round pick (and a fifth). Let's see the Bengals need to improve thier D-line so they picked up Rogers. The Lions need to improve their D-Line so they traded the best player on their D-line, Rogers. Makes "Matt Millen" sence to me!!

Another Update: The Bengals trade fell through, so the Lions picked up a corner back from the Browns. Nice work! The Lions allowed 32 passing TDs (worst) and 258.2 passing ypg (second worst) while the Browns allowed 29 TDs (tied for third worst) and 230.1 passing ypg (7th worst) - I see improvement!
