Lenon to start for Lions

[KYPack]

Maybe we aren't the worst team in the north.

While checking out the other teams in the division, I discovered that Paris Lenon will start as the Middle Linebacker for the Lions this year. That can't be, can it?

They are hurting that bad to play him as their Mike?

Sounds good to me. Any team with kitna as starting QB and Paris Lenon as starting Mike is no threat to anybody.

[ahaha]

Sweet, our TE's and should have good days against the Lions.

Lenon wouldn't have made the Packers roster. Even Roy Manning got picked up by, none other, than Texans. Geez, how much say does Shermy have!? R. Manning was # 7 on Packers depth chart, Paris would've been # 8.

Sherman has made Houston a home for Packer cast-offs. But, he wasn't able to get the one they probably needed the most. Larry Beightol...outstanding offensive line coach + worst line in the NFL. I guess they really wanted to switch to the ZBS.

Really started this thread so somebody could post the old "Paris Hilton/Lenon" jokes.

hard to bash lenon for last year, he was one of the guys that i felt played as hard as he could even though his talent just was not up to par with what it needed to be. Maybe the Lions see something in him that we didnt, but then again.. it is the lions.

Just like the saw something in Scottie Vines.

Good for Paris Lenon! I am happy for him. I have nothing but the utmost respect for the Paris Lenons of the world. He exemplifies hard work, perseverance and dedication.

2000 - Undrafted free agent waived before training camp even started.
2001 - XFL player, and Green Bay Practice Squad
2002 - NFLE & GB Special Teams (Packers openly hoped NOT to play him on Def.)
2003 - 2004 Special Teams, gradually more time on defense.
2005 - Packer's top reserve at all LB positions, started 12 games.
2006 - Detroit's starter for the opening game.

Unlike the Cletidus Hunts of the world Paris Lenon has earned everything he has received, and I for one hope he is outstanding in 14 of 16 games this year. I will let you guess which two I hope he plays poorly in!

They released Brad Bedell to sign Manning.

Kubiak may be a strange guy as HC. He is making wierd moves and acting funny. Reminds me of Chris Palmer when he took over Cleveland. Some guys get goofy when they get the big job.

Mario Williams is playing for the Texans like the nay-sayers predicted. Physically overmatched, taking plays off, the whole bit. It is possible this kid could wash out.

[Guiness]

Bedell for Manning - wow. Sherman MUST have some say.

I haven't been paying attention to the Mario watch. That would be something, wouldn't it? I'd say unprecedented, except:

1995 Ki-Jana Carter
1996 Keyshawn Johnson
1999 Tim Couch
2000 Courtney Brown
2005 Alex Smith

Regardless, that's one heck of a mistake.

The last decade has not been nice to #1 overalls. Maybe I'm being harsh on Smith though.

Well of course, Kubiak has been Denver's coordinator for years. He is naturally going to adopt the system he had employed there for years.

LMFAO

Well with Davis out, you think the Texans would like to have Reggie Bush now?

I was going to make a rip on Mario for his lack of production, but the fact remains that he loves the weight room like Hawk, is 6'7"300 and quit bench pressing at the combine at 35 since he felt that was enough. Oh, and the 4.7 40 was just ridiculous. Everyone gave Vernon Davis all the credit, but christ where is this guys credit? And why is Davis not playing outside LB on passing downs? He's got the size and ideal speed? If I were Mike Nolan, i'd be training him for that.

[Spaulding]

Lenon I believe is replacing Boss Bailey who everyone wanted the Packers to draft instead of Barnett. Glad the masses lost on draft day those years ago. Hmmm a player with more injuries than departed Davepoop and less production than even Hunt.

Looks like the Lion's LB corps is going to be grim this year.
