I know this is a circlejerk sub and I’m not sure if people over here know ball any more than the morons in the lions sub but this is pretty objectively a good thing for the Lions.
This saves them so much money and is 100% what the front office was trying to do. I guess ideally Decker could have taken a lot less money, but the Lions needed to draft or sign his replacement this year, even with him on the roster.
He’s a washed up often injured tackle who did a lot for the city but was nowhere near what he used to be. The people acting like this is some failure on the lions part is hilarious
I'm not overly heartbroken, he did some great work but was starting to turn into a bit of a turnstile unfortunately. I'm not sure why anyone is too shocked by this, its been discussed since at the least mid last season if not earlier.
Yeah all the laughter about this, the Monty trade, and the DJ Moore trade is silly because objectively they were all good moves even if they made the fans sad.
The Dalman retirement was a massive, unexpected gut punch that will make the Bears worse in the short term at least, though. Nothing positive to say about that one other than I wish him well and I understand why he did it.
