It's great when trying to be lowkey and if youre visiting somewhere, it's still not as fire as rollin one up or even a bong hit though

Sounds like they are still having issues with the kickers at camp. Time to bring back Kickalicious.

The Detroit Lions signed their best cornerback off the street in the middle of training camp last year, and they're hoping for another dose of defensive back magic this fall.

The Lions signed veteran cornerback Drayton Florence to a one-year deal today, adding depth to the thinnest unit on their team.

Florence played eight games for the Lions in 2012, a season that was interrupted by a broken forearm. He made five starts and intercepted two passes for the Carolina Panthers last year.

Florence was considered the best cornerback on the free agent market, and he'll compete with Cassius Vaughn and Jonte Green for the No. 4 spot.

The Lions typically keep five or six cornerbacks, and their top three corners appear to be locked in. Rashean Mathis, who signed last August and was the Lions' best corner last year, and Darius Slay will start, and Bill Bentley plays in most nickel packages.

Rookie fourth-round pick Nevin Lawson also has a roster spot secure, but he's not likely to contribute much this fall.

Florence fills the roster spot opened by the Lions waiving receiver Jonathan Baldwin on Wednesday.

@Regular_P
If Mathis and Florence end up starting at the corners

Are you expecting anything less?

Your boy Ebron is hurt and is probably gonna miss the exhibition opener. Not bad for a third string TE.

Both Stafford and Brees get the ball out quick, and both the Lions and Saints have consistently ranked near the bottom of the league in sacks allowed. By all accounts, Stafford, like Brees, has a grasp for the mental side of the position that rivals just about anyone’s.
