What are the chances of the Lions signing Spikes or Culpepper? I feel that both could play a significant role in helping the Lions get better. Who wouldmake a bigger impact at running back? Jordan, or Davenport? What’s the true story on this Chris Simms thing? Is he really worth it, or will he be yet another so-called “safety net” that will only hold a clipboard?
