Tahir Whitehead

With Doug Hogue, Ronnell Lewis, and Tahir Whitehead. I think Lewis will backup both OLB and DE. Back to Tahir he's an undersized OLB that is a self made guy. Don't know too much about him. He's got some good speed a good project for the Lions. It's on the coaches and scouts if he is a bust. I've only heard what a hard worker he is. Will contribute on special teams. Fill in for the LBs we're losing to free agency. Bobby Carpenter whether you know it or not ha d a good year. He can't catch the ball stiff hips. Coaching can change this player. They'll beef him up a bit, but trust me when I say he passes the eye test. His 40 time was right around Josh Norman that I wanted pretty bad. Tahir isn't a flashy pick, but he'll contribute more than any cornerback other than Cliff Harris possibly could right now. We gave up a fourth round pick I've been told next year. They must have saw something.
