Furrey got paid. He got a new 3 year deal worth about $9 million with a $4 million signing bonus. Not sure if that is Wes Welker money, but it's not bad for a guy who was playing safety the year before.

As a Lions' fan I am happy with this development. Jones ran all over the Lions. While Benson may pan out and be even better than Jones, I've never been overly concerned with Benson. Hopefully this will work out poorly for the Bears.
