No Offer, No Visit From Free-Agent RB Grant
The Lions either had genuine interest in free agent running back Ryan Grant or his agent was trying to stimulate the market for his client. Agent Alan Herman told the Detroit News last week the Lions had made Grant an offer and the running back would be visiting the team on Monday. The Lions never confirmed that an offer was made and Grant never visited. There are no future visits scheduled. Unless the Lions were to restructure some contracts or cut players, they wouldn't have had much salary cap space, either. It was believed they had less than $5 million left before signing any of their drafted rookies.
--The Lions did host veteran free agent safety Chris Crocker on Tuesday. A 10-year vet most recently with the Bengals, Crocker, 32, started all 16 games last season and made 61 tackles.
