Lions signed DT Chuck Darby to a three-year contract.

Darby is expected to take Shaun Rogers' spot at nose tackle alongside Cory Redding, who will line up at the 3-technique. The team loses about four inches, 35 pounds, and gains four years going from Rogers to Darby. Still, he is familiar with coach Rod Marinelli's system and the two have a positive history together. We'll see how his recovery from a torn patellar tendon goes.

The Lions will host DTs Chartric Darby and Ellis Wyms next week.

Hopefully this isn't their plan to replace Shaun Rogers. Darby and Wyms know Rod Marinelli's system, but shouldn't be seen as key cogs at this point in their career.

Seahawks DT Chartric Darby suffered a torn patellar tendon Sunday. He will be placed on injured reserve, ending his season.

Rookie third-round pick Brandon Mebane will move into the starting lineup next to Rocky Bernard. Darby's injury comes at an inopportune time, as he's in the final year of his contract and will turn 33 before 2008 free agency.

The Broncos have met with four defensive lineman this week, including former Buc Chartric Darby.

They've also talked to Courtney Brown, former Falcons DT Ed Jasper, and former Bengals DT Tony Williams. The Broncos are thin and faceless on the D-line right now aside from Trevor Pryce, who is expected to get traded.
