Jay Cutler wants out of Denver and it’s looking more and more like the Broncos have no choice but to trade him. One of the main teams in the NFL needing a quarterback would obviously be the Detroit Lions, who need help everywhere they can get it.

Let me state for the record that I’m just speculating here, but if the Broncos do eventually decide to trade disgruntled quarterback Jay Cutler, the Detroit Lions seem like a perfect fit.
The Lions are in obvious need of a quarterback and currently hold the No. 1 and No. 20 overall picks in next month’s draft. If they’re interested in Cutler, they could offer the No. 1 pick...

Great news for former Horn Cory Redding this weekend as he was traded along with a 5th round draft pick from the woeful (both team and city) Detroit Lions to the Seattle Seahawks for linebacker Julian Peterson.

Don’t get me wrong, if Jay Cutler comes to NY, I’ll be the first one in his Jersey.
I’m just saying I don’t think it’s the answer. I just don’t see the fit.
I know the Jets don’t know what they have in Clemens, Ratliff or Ainge, but I do think they should find out.
