Bye Bye Shaun

[ajaX82]

According to ESPN.com, the Detroit Loins and defensive tackle Shaun Rogers have decided to part ways before the 2008 season.

The Lions have decided to either trade Rogers or release him, according to the same report.

Right call id say if we can get a good trade done. Vilma for Rogers?

Rod marinelli came out and stated the lions wont be releasing him and wouldnt comment on a trade....Kowalski also seems to think lions will have no problem getting some sort of value in a trade...however they want a player rather than a pick in the rogers deal

There goes our best player.

Ive seen a report that we are probably going to trade him to Denver, which means we are probably getting screwed again

Its in MM best interest to trade away talent for nothing thats how he's stayed on the job for last 7 or so years

After a deal fell through that sent Rogers to the Cincinnati Bengals for a third-round and fifth-round pick, the Lions rebounded by sending Rogers to Cleveland in exchange for a third-round choice and cornerback Leigh Bodden. Late Friday night, the Lions informed Rogers' agent, Kennard McGuire, that the trade with the Browns has been complete.

Im cool with this. Bodden is pretty decent from what i recall, and the third rounder doesnt hurt. Still wanted more, but the Bengals deal was much worse, so im content
