Avril Won't Give Discount

Who cares if he only had 1 QB hit? He did sack the QB TWICE, right? How many times did he flush Jackson out of the pocket? I'm asking because i don't know.

If this kid walks, this is going to be a nightmare for us. I can see a team like the Packers (who need a passrusher in the worst way) getting him and having him chase Stafford for the next 5 years twice a year. I don't like it!!! Just a bad feeling.....

On the bright side, our running game would improve for those two games.

Says who?

Yeah, I suppose you're right...the Lions running game is THAT bad.

tag him and trade him for a 2nd.....draft Vinny Curry , keep LoJack and Young in rotation for 2012 and groom Curry.

This. Avril isn't worth anywhere near the money somebody is gonna give him. Tag him and trade him. This is gonna be a good draft for DEs with Couples, Perry, Branch, Mercilus, Crick, Curry, etc. Draft one of these guys and play LoJack and Young while they develop.

he was traded....

Okay, wasn't sure. Still a sad day, I loved that dude.

Chris Claiborne?? bit of a reach, but I've got to imagine we wanted him back more so than letting him go to Minnesota
