    TJ Lang goes to Lions

    Mike McCartney‏ @MikeMcCartney7 1m1 minute ago
    OG @TJLang70 has agreed to a 3 year contract with the @Lions
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    any confirmation of this?

    all i'm seeing is that he's narrowed it down to the lions, seahawks and packers (all the teams he visited)

    and he said that on TV in the last hour

    Pretty sure that is his agent's Twitter. Unless he claims he got hacked ...

    Objectively, I don't want Lang at his age for a 3 year 3rd contract and big money. Though pay as you go would mitigate a lot of that, still not my favorite way to spend money on a position that can be had cheaper.

    But I would really rather have Tretter back for some options. Or at least a plan beyond Bulaga at Guard.

    Meet Lucas Patrick, possibly your starting Guard in 2017.

    Maybe. Or Bulaga. Or Spriggs. Or a draft pick. Packers not afraid to stick a rookie in there on the OL.

    Thank you Lang for your services. No hoWrd feelings. But can't wish a rival a good luck so gooday. Guess OL gets added to possibilities in the draft in say rounds 3-5 maybe? Who knows really, but its fun to guess.
    Now what y'all know about dem Texas boys
    Comin' down in candied toys, smokin' weed and talkin' noise!!!

    Gonna have to sign Taylor long term, and Lindsley. Then we need one guy to step forward. Springs, Patrick, Murphy or a draft pick.

    Lang is getting $9.5M average for 3 years with $19M fully guaranteed. No way Ted matches that.

    G T.J. Lang received a three-year, $28.5 million deal with $19M fully guaranteed, according to source.

    Rob Demovsky‏ @RobDemovsky
    Was told Packers best offer wasn't close: 3 years, $21.5M with $6.5M guaranteed. Lang would have stayed if it was close. Clearly it wasn't

    damn, lots of coin

    can't let guys you want to keep hit free agency

    They guaranteed $20 mil. He's a good player, but I don't see him as a $9.5 mil/year guy. Still, another whole to fill. Likely a 3rd round comp pick, and at least a 4th.

    that 20 million guaranteed could be mostly bull shit

    gotta see the numbers

    most teams will consider everything involved in the first 2 years to be guaranteed, because they just signed the guy, they plan on keeping him

    so a guy with a salary of 3 million his first year, with a 2 million dollar roster bonus in year one, plus a 3 million dollar salary in year 2 with a 3 million dollar roster bonus, plus just a 9 million dollar signing bonus, becomes 20 million "guaranteed

    smoke and mirrors, i bet when the end numbers come out, its not gonna be that much more then green bay offered him

    green bay could have played the same gme by saying bennetts deal was a 3 year 21 million dollar deal with 14.5 million "guaranteed"

    TT fucked up AGAIN, big shocker there. He lets Tretter and Lang go, Yet signs two TE's that they will never use to their potential.
