Shocking...Lions are dumb they promote Mayhew to GM
LIONS PROMOTE LEWAND, MAYHEW
On the day that the Lions fired coach Rod Marinelli, the team also rewarded two men who are inextricably linked with the embarrassing failures of the franchise over the past eight seasons. Tom Lewand has been promoted from COO to President, and Martin Mayhew has been given the permanent position of General Manager. The team also announced that defensive coordinator Joe Barry has been terminated, and that offensive coordinator Jim Colletto has been reassigned to offensive line coach. Elsewhere, secondary coach Jimmy Kaye and assistant offensive line coach Mike Barry have been released, and defensive line coach Joe Cullen’s contract will not be renewed. Also, assistant director of pro personnel Dave Boller won’t be retained. So, basically, not much is changing in Motown. To the ongoing delight of Packers, Bears, and Vikings fans. |

Good for the Chiefs because that only leaves the Browns and the Chiefs competing for the top GM prospects

Damn. I'm glad I'm not a Lions fan. It makes more sense why Barry Sanders got the **** out and never looked back.

I think most people praised Mayhew for shipping Williams to the Cowboys and getting good picks. Not bad for your first move.
