"I could really give good three years without falling back or losing anything," Ngata said Wednesday.
News broke Sunday, during the three-day negotiating period that precedes free agency, that Suh and the Dolphins had come to an agreement.
Consistency and weight were areas of concern the Lions had with Fairley, though he made improvements after a brief demotion.
Abdul-Quddus played in all 16 games in 2014 and recorded 32 tackles.
Bynes played in 13 games for Detroit in 2014 and logged 22 tackles and an interception.
Weighing in at a listed 340 pounds and at 6'4" he is one of the biggest humans you may ever lay eyes on.
Ngata, 31, had spent his entire career in Baltimore, where Caldwell and Austin both coached before coming to Detroit.
Suh is one of 18 players not on the roster who will get paid by the Lions this year.
Much like when LeBron James left Cleveland for South Beach, fans revolted and burned their LeBron jerseys.
Even if they had re-signed Suh, the Lions would have needed to add at least two defensive tackles, either through free agency or the draft.
Lawrence Jackson, a first-round pick out of USC in 2008, has never been shy about offering his opinions on his Twitter feed.
One couple never sold their tickets, but were ticketed because "police unreasonably suspected that they may sell them."
"For them it's just a great way to kind of say how they feel without saying too much and kind of get the conversation going," Zipp said.
Knighton has garnered interest from a number of teams, but the Lions do not see him as a fit for what they do, the source said.
ESPN's Mike Sando listed Fairley as number one among "buyer-beware" free agents.
