There’s an undrafted rookie that turns heads every summer for the Lions. This year, it was DT Demetrius Taylor. Taylor has made the initial 53-man roster. Strong camp for him, well deserved spot.

Six Deuce will bite a knee…
Woord!
Six Deuce!
He’ll see meaningful snaps, develop into a solid contributor, and be a very nice rotational piece in the future.

Good for him!
Props to the posters than were hyping him up as a UDFA before he ever played for the Lions.

Watch Levi to IR with designation to return

Has to make the 53 man first to do that! He could go on IR in 24 hours after the cut down. But, he unfortunately requires a roster spot on the 53 man because he practiced in camp.

He will.
That won’t be a problem. You can cut a guy like hector and bring him back.
My prediction, Malcom Brown signs right after Levi is put on IR tomorrow. Can’t sign Brown now, that takes 2 roster spots.

If it’s Brown it’s after week 1 I’d think

That’s what I’m expecting to happen.

Interesting. AFTER week 1? What rule is making this better for us?

Contract not guaranteed if after week 1 brother! Which means you can cut them any time. Before week 1, they getting all the $$ regardless of being cut during the season.
It’s a ruthless business sadly.

Thanks for the explain, my bro.
Deuce isn’t worried about any of this stuff…he’s coming to whip ass

Don’t hate me, but #62 might still get cut after week 1. If we sign a vet after week 1, which i think we will. Cutting #62 after week 1, helps our chances of slipping him onto the PS after all the other teams have filled their rosters and practice squads.
Hopefully he gets 3 sacks in week 1 though which would change everything, haha
You like Buggs better than 6Deuce?

Not really, Buggs is more of a block eater and 6Deuce is more of a disruptive penetrator! That’s what she said anyways. Very different styles of DT’s.

Glad he made it. DT’s with pass rush ability are hard to find. I was scouring the cuts today and there were none that I’d rather have over Taylor an UDFA. That speaks volumes right there.
