Quick Glance: Lions reach agreement with Amon-Ra St. Brown on new $120 million deal: Insider
- The Lions are in transition under Brad Holmes and Dan Campbell to establish their presence in the playoffs. Extending Amon-Ra St. Brown marks the beginning of focusing on home-grown talents and laying the groundwork for future deals.
- St. Brown signs a new four-year contract worth $120 million, with $77 million guaranteed, positioning him as the highest-paid receiver in the league. The Lions are committed to nurturing their draft picks and planning ahead to ensure long-term success.
- St. Brown serves as a notable example of the Lions' scouting process and player fit identification. His impressive stats and mental resilience make him a valuable asset to the team. The Lions are cautious in securing their core long-term while carefully selecting external players and avoiding extending contracts to every player.
- In addition to St. Brown, other Lions players may also receive long-term contract extensions. The organization aims to keep their core intact and focus on long-term success, while carefully selecting and evaluating external players. The financial decisions in the upcoming years will shape the team's future.

2024 NFL Draft: Deion Sanders blasts media, critics for 'ridiculous' analysis of QB Michael Penix Jr.
cbssports.com/college-football/news/2024-nfl-draft-deion-sanders-blasts-media-critics-for-ridiculous-analysis-of-qb-michael-penix-jr/
Quick Glance: Deion Sanders Criticizes Media and Critics for 'Ridiculous' Analysis of QB Michael Penix Jr.
- The coach of the Colorado team, Deion Sanders, is convinced that the former Washington quarterback, Michael Penix Jr., is not receiving enough attention as the 2024 NFL Draft approaches. On Wednesday, Sanders expressed a passionate message of support for Penix, just one day before the draft commences in Detroit.
- Despite concerns about age and injuries, Penix is ranked 30th in the CBS Sports NFL Draft Prospect Rankings and is the fifth quarterback in the hierarchy behind Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, Jayden Daniels, and J.J. McCarthy. This placement still includes Penix in discussions for the first round.
- The only 'average game' Sanders is likely referring to would be the College Football Playoff National Championship game last year, where Washington lost 34-13 to Michigan. In that game, the left-handed passer completed 27 of 51 passes for 251 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions, marking an unremarkable end to an incredible two-year run with the Huskies.
- Penix secured the second spot in the Heisman Trophy voting, leading in passing yards with 4,903 in 2023, and threw 36 touchdown passes while leading Washington to the Pac-12 title. Penix's 25-3 record as a starter for the Huskies is legendary for a team that had a 4-8 record the year before his arrival.
