Titus Young....anyone?

Not a draft and not a FA... he was let go.
Lions part ways with mercurial WR Titus Young
Lions waived WR Titus Young.
It was a matter of when, not if, the Lions parted ways with the mercurial, delusional two-year "veteran." Although Young was red-flagged for character issues coming out of Boise State, the Lions made him the No. 44 pick of the 2011 draft. Young managed to post a promising 48/607/6 line as a rookie despite a few run-ins with coach Jim Schwartz, but went off the rails as a sophomore. Young sucker-punched teammate Louis Delmas in an offseason workout, drew a personal foul for head-butting Rams CB Janoris Jenkins in Week 1 and sabotaged the Lions' devastating Week 11 loss to the Packers by intentionally lining up in the wrong position. Sent home for the year in Week 13, Young sealed his Lions fate with a series of bizarre January tweets. A true burner, Young has the skill to succeed in the NFL, but won't have teams falling over themselves to give him a second chance. He will get one, however.

Psst... tribe, letting him go makes him a FA.

Had him on my bench for awhile in FF. Does not know how to take advantage of all the good life offers when you are the #2 to Megatron and your QB is Stafford.
Head case.

Not sure if we need ego driven characters on this team. I've taken a liking to the under-the-radar type guys we seem to have.
