In non-DUI related news (FINALLY!), the Lions announced they've signed one of their 7th round draft picks, the second player to agree to a deal. The first being their 4th round selection out of the U, OT Jason Fox, who came to terms with the team late last week. (while TWFE was having server issues)

Via Aaron Wilson of the National Football Post:

The Detroit Lions have signed seventh-round defensive end Willie Young, according to a league source.

Young signed a three-year, $1.26 million contract that includes a bonus of almost $48,000 and the standard base salaries of $320,000, $405,000 and $490,000.

Selected 213th overall out of North Carolina State, Young started 36 games and recorded 194 career tackles, 20 sacks, 46 tackles for losses and 29 quarterback pressures.

No word if the negotiations were held while under the influence. (Sorry, I couldn't resist!)
