Yes and no. He left Montreal on his own to go back to the NFL and he was relatively productive in his time with the Lions, but was stuck behind some depth at his position.
I went to the first hour of rookie camp today. A few random observations:
Garrett Waggoner was at safety the entire time. He really stood out...he has lots of energy and is very vocal. I see him as eventually a defensive leader on the team, a guy other players want to play for and lifts the performance of everyone around him.
Addison Richards and Lavasier Tuinei stood out at the WR spot. Forget about the Richards/Etienne comparison as Richards is a big solid guy. And the hair is as impressive in person!
Childs dropped an easy pass in the short passing drills. In the very short time I watched him, he came across as a guy who thinks he's already made the team.
Brendan Morgan was at DB.
I watched the RBs for a while, as I was particularly interested in seeing Bradley Randle up close, but none of the RBs really stood out to me. Buck was coaching QB handoffs when I was watching them.
I noticed there was 6 QBs at practice today. Not sure who the 6th one is.
Mims is a massive, massive man. I saw him standing next to Chungh and he made Chungh look small. Mims was playing left tackle today and Chungh was in at left guard (Greaves spot).
Quinn Everett and Jace Daniels were taking reps at center.
I noticed Buck Pierce was a lot more vocal, compared to last year. Buck was a lot more involved in explaining the offensive concepts, where last year that was entirely Marcel. Looks like another step in Buck's development towards becoming an OC.
No sign of Bob Wylie. Paul Charboneau was coaching the OL.
