Haloti Ngata to Detroit Lions

Post by maxduck »

From ESPN

The Baltimore Ravens traded defensive tackle Haloti Ngata to the Detroit Lions on Tuesday, the Ravens confirmed.

Terms of the trade were not disclosed.

The Lions get their replacement for Ndamukong Suh, who was expected to sign with the Miami Dolphins after the 4 p.m. ET start to free agency, and the Ravens free up $8.5 million of much-needed cap space. Ngata had a team-high $16 million cap figure.

The Ravens were attempting to sign Ngata to an extension, but the sides never got close to a deal.

Ngata, 31, is a five-time Pro Bowl player who had been the foundation for the Ravens' run defense. He had his best season in recent memory last year before getting suspended four games for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing drugs.

Two Pro-Bowl Ducks are on the move. Looks like Max Unger and a couple draft picks are going to New Orleans for Jimmy Graham while Haloti Ngata is getting traded to Detroit for a couple mid-round draft picks.

Ngata is going into his 10th season? Detroit should be a solid fit for him.

Eagles reached agreement with former Giants and Seahawks CB Walter Thurmond, per source. Thurmond now teams up again with Byron Maxwell.
