The Detroit Lions have been modest in the first two days of free agent negotiating, with a clear focus on making the defense better. Their latest reported move is the signing of Raiders cornerback Amik Robertson.

Robertson is just 25 years old and his career seemed to be budding in Las Vegas. His coach, teammates, and fans almost universally had great things to say about the cornerback, and Raiders nation certainly doesn’t seem to happy he’s headed for Detroit.

A borderline full-time starter, Robertson brings depth and potential to a cornerback position that has lacked both in Detroit.
