The Detroit Lions had a quiet start to the free agency period until they signed wide receiver Golden Tate to a $31 million contract with $13.25 million guaranteed. The team also re-signed longtime center Dominic Raiola, who will be 35 during the 2014 season. During the draft the Lions will have to address their defense after losing safety Louis Delmas to the Miami Dolphins and defensive end Willie Young to the Chicago Bears.
