- Tuesday's free-agent frenzy continued, as the Detroit Lions struck quickly to replace Ndamukong Suh.
The Ravens announced they have traded defensive tackle Haloti Ngata to the Lions. Baltimore will receive fourth- and fifth-round draft picks in return, per NFL Media's Albert Breer.
It's essentially a salary dump for Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome, who was unable to convince Ngata to trim a $16 million cap hit.
http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000477783/article/lions-acquire-haloti-ngata-in-trade-with-ravens Usually the thought of the Ravens and Ngata makes me  But today it makes me  First Torrey Smith leaves and now they trade Ngata. This is shaping up to be a good free agency period for the Steelers after all.  _________________  If you're going to be a smart ass, you'd better be smart. Otherwise, you're just an ass. | |

| Lions lost their big 2 then replace him with Ngata. Interesting moves going on.

As much as Ngata can still be disruptive, this is definitely a step down for Detroit. Just a reactionary, gap-fill move on their part. I heard an interesting comment on Fox Sports Radio regarding Suh going to Miami: He's dealing with a +$100M contract. Florida doesn't have an income tax, therefore, Suh will pocket an extra $8M over the course of the contract compared to what he would have pocketed in Detroit or other locations.  | |

| So Detroit is going to have financial hardships again?
Too soon?

| I think Ben is just happy he doesn't have to worry about having his head karate chopped in half anymore. _________________ "Success isn't owned, it's leased and the rent is due every day." - TJ Watt | |

I agree. It shows their lack of imagination. | |
