Of those, Kwon, Clapp and Ringo all make sense to resign.

Eh, there’s got to be a reason he’s still out there.

My guess? It's probably about the money...

Unless in the Loomis/Harley calculus they've asked him to wait with a wink-wink as they may feel they didn't lose that compensatory pick with the Dalton signing...

Either way, I'm definitely Team HoneyBadger joining the Saints defense...

(excerpt)

D.J. Chark should have no issue finding targets in Detroit. Outside of Amon-Ra St. Brown, there's not a whole lot to get excited about with the Lions' receiving corps.

The problem, though, is whether Chark will be able to use those targets to showcase his strengths. After all, he only signed a one-year, $10 million contract, so he'll have 2022 to prove his worth to the Lions and the rest of the league.

As long as Jared Goff is the quarterback for the Lions, it's unlikely Chark will shine.

According to John Kinsley's Deep Ball Project, Goff was 27th in the league in accuracy on passes of 21 yards or more. Not only is he inaccurate on those deep throws, but he also tended to avoid them completely in 2021. Goff had the lowest average intended air yards with just 6.6, per Next Gen Stats.

At 6'2" with 4.34 speed, Chark is at his best as a vertical threat. While he'll be a featured part of Detroit's offense, he didn't find the optimal quarterback to raise his stock.

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
