Darby Could be Next Addition

With four free agents in town today, Seattle Seahawks defensive tackle Chuck Darby is the most likely to sign with Detroit says Lions Insider Tom Kowalski during an interview with Ryan Terpstra on WGHN, 1370-AM in Grand Haven.

Kowalski elaborates on the possiblity saying, “He (Darby) played for Marinelli before, he’s a big Marinelli guy and I think he’d help replace Shaun Rogers. No one is going to be as good as Shaun Rogers, but if Cory Redding plays well at the 3-technique, that’s the most important thing. In the Tampa 2, the nose tackle isn’t as important of a position as the 3-technique, which Redding is currently playing. So if they can bring in a guy like Darby and make him part of the rotation, I think that’s really going to help.”

Darby spent his first four NFL season (2001-2005) with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before joining the Seahawks in 2005. During a 2006 press conference, Darby had this to say about Marinelli.
