Lions released LB Devon Kennard.


Kennard is a 29-year-old team captain coming off back-to-back seven sack seasons and a career-high 45 solo tackles. It's a puzzling move given his on-field production, but the Lions do save $5.4 million against the cap and did just land Jamie Collins yesterday. Kennard will have a market as a starter and should get picked up shortly.

Another solid Linebacker hits the market

Sounds like a depth special teams guy.

3.45M for a ST guy? ... we are something like his 5th team in 5 years or 6 years in the league.

$3.45 is the maximum if he receives all bonuses. Could be 3rd down coverage guy....tested 4.51 40 at the combine

end of Josh Harvey Clemons or Reuben Foster?

Thanks, that helps. Pay if you play, I like that.

--------------------

Pierre-Louis flashed near the end of the 2019 season, where he played in relief of the injured Roquan Smith. Pierre-Louis had 28 tackles and one interception in the final four games.

May be some potential there. We desperately needed to add speed to our LB corps so I am not going to complain at all.

Prior to his filling in for Roquan Smith, Pierre-Louis was primarily used in coverage where he excelled, earning a 91.0 grade from PFF.

LB Thomas Davis announces on his Instagram that he is reuniting with Ron Rivera with the Redskins.
--------------

Hes going to be 37 in 5 days. Hopefully its a 1 yr deal and there is no money attached to 2021 and beyond. Otherwise ..wtf.

112 tackles in 2019 and probably cheap (very little guaranteed )

Just a quick blurb from Wikipedia - I know it is his 2014 season:

2014
Through the first five weeks of the 2014 season, Pro Football Focus rated Davis as the best 4-3 outside linebacker in coverage.

My point here is that if we are switching to a 4-3, and it's Rivera's system he grew up in, seems like he is coming in to help Rivera/Del Rio set expectations and model the system how it should work.

We also have a slew of LB's so my guess is it is gonna be a helluva competition - if they get to have group practices...

Don't get it. Don't care that he's a "good locker room guy" which is how some will spin it - or how many tackles he had last year. He'll be 37 by the time the season starts and this is a rebuilding team.

[sdskinsfan2001]

Unless the next Panther we get is Christian McCaffrey I'm gonna start getting pissed.

Sign some relevant players that can actually start for us that have never even been to the state of North Carolina.
