UM graduate, started last year at RT for the Lions. Would love to bring him in to compete with McKinnie or whomever we draft.
 
could not be anymore of a "meh" news story.

Yeatmans replacement
 
Fox is a good player, can't stay health though.

Draft Z. Martin in the first at RT, sign Fox and McKinnie to vet minimum camp deals and see who wins the back up job. :idk:

LT - Albert
LG - B. Thomas (Draft / 3rd Round)
C - Pouncey
RG - Shelley
RT - Z. Martin (Draft / 1st Round)

Depth - McKinnie (LT/RT), Garner (ALL), Brenner (G's/C), D. Thomas (G's)

He's nothing like Yeatman. Fox can play, and is a good ZBS fit. He just can't stay healthy.

and he will still take yeatmeans role on the team backing up the new RT.
 
worth minimum money only. 4 years in NFL and 3 starts and sat behind lifetime backup corey hilliard.
Fox isn't very good but probably is an upgrade to Yeatman.

He was injured 3 out of 4 years. Different injury every time - foot, knee, groin, ect. He's just one of those guys...
 
A swing OT is one of the most vital depth positions on the team. Must be able to help in a pinch.
 
Fox is very talented but injury prone dude is a definite upgrade when healthy. Not sure what everyone is watching he's like Patterson good when he's healthy but that isn't often

played 10 games last year and only started 2 so inury or not he is nothing to even get excited about.
From what I know of him he has been injured all 4 years of his NFL career. Why would we even want this guy as a backup.
The guy has been able to play in 12 games in 4 years why even waste a roster spot on him. He is injured that much as a backup I can imagine how injury prone he would be if he ever played.
The guy has potential but he is made of glass. He makes Dmitri Patterson look like an Iron man. Most of the time I would say hey he is worth a shot but why take up a roster spot over another guy who might actually be able to play in some games

Can't have too much depth, sign him up!

depth is only good if a guy can stay healthy enough to be on field. The guy barely plays and is constantly injured, how do u think he will hold up paying a decent amount of snaps.
Let him work some other teams doctors out
