Scott Pioli is the GM.

Lions making some moves:

Scout.com's Adam Caplan reports that the Lions have agreed to terms with free agent wide receiver Nate Burleson. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the deal will be for five seasons.
The Lions shouldn't be done upgrading their WR corps after this, but we like the move if Caplan's report is true. Detroit has been needy at the No. 2 wideout spot since Calvin Johnson emerged as an All-Pro caliber talent in 2008. Last year, Johnson was dogged by double teams. Burleson won't draw safeties away from Johnson, but he at least can make plays down the field and is more efficient than Dennis Northcutt or 2009 free agent bust Bryant Johnson.

I was hoping the Chiefs would make a run for him...

Nate Burleson signed with the Lions 5/25. Per NFLN scrolling update on free agency show.

Chambers can give you what Burleson would.

I guess there is a hope that he makes it to KC and we have a chance to convince him to stay. "Nothing says 'fit' like 'finances' " Can you say Edgerton Hartwell and Hugh Douglas part Trois!

Dansby says he'll visit "every team"

Posted by Mike Florio on March 5, 2010 9:06 AM ET
Though free agent linebacker Karlos Dansby's first trip will be to Miami, he's also keeping watch on the Redskins. And everyone else.

"Washington is definitely a place I'm looking at," Dansby told Jason Reid of the Washington Post. "My gate is wide open right now. I'm going to take every visit. I'm going in to every team to see what type of piece of the puzzle I will be."

Possible translation? "No one is willing to pay me what I want."

"I do my homework, man," Dansby said. "Any team that wants me to visit, I do homework on 'em. I have to know how would I fit in."

Right, but nothing says "fit" like "finances." The more money a guy is offered about that which he thinks he's worth, the more loved he feels, the better fit he senses.

Dansby has earned franchise money each of the past two years. As a result, he likely thinks/hopes he'll be averaging $9 million or more per season on a long-term deal. Thus, we think he needs to come to grips with the fact that his W-2 will be showing a much lower average number going forward.

Rolle has zero interest in KC. He wants to go play in Miami.

He's from Miami. He played college ball in Miami. He wants to play in Miami. I expect him to be a Dolphin.

Hopefully Pioli is working on a deal to get Boldin here.

I wonder why there hasn't been any news on Chambers yet. Nobody is talking about him in the Media. He doesn't even make the list of free agent WR's.
