slowmoe57 Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Would love to see Boldin on our team -- don't see it happening though -- Cap issues and possibility of some Ravens defencemen on the radar would squash this - alot depends on the Favre situation - edit -- my bad dyslexia is a terrible thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forget who said it, but most defensive players going from dome teams to outdoor teams generally play alot worse. It's so much harder for visiting Offensive teams to hard count the snap due to the noise. Thus the defense gets a better pass rush. Outdoor teams don't have that luxury and Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played better when he was with the Browns the year before. Personally, I don't think we can really make any judgment on any player who played for the Lions. That whole team sucked, from GM to coaching. Hard to succeed with leadership like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outdoor teams don't have that luxury and He's a good corner(or at least was before the lions ruined him.) He's only been in Detroit for 1 season as a part of the Shaun Rodgers trade. Prior to his year in Detroit he was looking like he had the potential to be a top CB. I mean look at what **** the Browns secondary became after letting him go. I think with our cap situation he'll probably be a bit to pricey but I'm not holding his 1 year in that **** show against him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll come high$$$. That's why I'd prefer a Vontae Davis at Jets pick#17, if we can get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Troll Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Damien Woody was a free agent. This is a guy that was CUT BY THE ****ING 0-16 LIONS BECAUSE HE SUCKED TOO MUCH. No thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hofstra Jet Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 i hope vontae davis is around.. he looks legit.. but i dont think he will be around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gang_green03 Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 The Lions are clueless and he's being cut because they don't feel like paying his huge roster bonus Exactly. I'd take him in a second. He's a pretty good cover corner and was very good with the Browns. Also, I read some Lions fans say that he struggled in their zone defense (I think they played cover 2?). If he's your #2 CB you have a pretty good duo. But like others have said there's a chance he might be too expensive for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustInFudge Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Damien Woody was a free agent. This is a guy that was CUT BY THE ****ING 0-16 LIONS BECAUSE HE SUCKED TOO MUCH. No thank you. Wrong. He was cut because of the hit they were going to take against the cap. He is a baller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mavrik Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Funny that a player can get released only a year after signing a FOUR year contract extension. Teams don't honor contracts, yet take umbridge when players hold out for better deals. Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel sorry for the veterans who watch these unproven college kids get billions just because they were drafted early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thai Jet Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Wrong. He was cut because of the hit they were going to take against the cap. He is a baller. He sure didn't show much last year. Big bucks for one pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdropOFvenom Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Bodden might actually be a good fit for this Defense. He struggled in Detroit, but it was in their Cover 2 (Zone) system. He was pretty good in Cleveland though playing quite a bit of man coverage. Worth looking into, could be a nice addition on the cheap which is something this team needs with their cap situation.

JustInFudge Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Oh, he's a "baller"? Is that why he struggled to beat out Travis Fisher last year? Does anyone have a good year playing for a 0-16 team not named Calvin Johnson? That defense is horrendous. Hodden can flat out ball in the right situations. He knows the 3-4. And can be very productive in a system that brings pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 It would be great to have the best defensive backfield in football. I'm personally a little more concerned about teams racking up 200 rushing yards when "the man in the middle" has back boo boo's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I been saying this from the begining of the season, we need a player like 'Bodden' on this team. If we don't get him, I rather spend our money all on defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
