The Lions have been relatively quiet in free agency so far this year, other than giving Calvin Johnson the richest contract in NFL history, but some players are starting to come to Allen Park for visits. Among the players expected to come are WR/KR Ted Ginn Jr., formerly of the 49ers, CB Jacob Lacey, Colts, and RT Eric Winston from the Texans.
Today, LT Marcus McNeill from the Chargers is scheduled to visit. McNeill is a two-time Pro Bowler and in his rookie season finished fourth in the Rookie of the Year voting, a remarkable achievement for an offensive lineman. He has had some injury issues of late as he has only played in 20 games the past two seasons, but when healthy he is a remarkable talent.
