The Detroit Lions made different-size financial investments in the two offensive tackles they added to their roster last week, but it will cost the Lions about $4 million if both make the 53-man roster this fall.
When the Lions traded for Greg Robinson, the second overall pick of the 2014 draft, they inherited the final year of his rookie contract at a guaranteed price of $3.322 million.
Robinson has no offset language in his contract, meaning the Lions would owe the full amount of his contract even if they cut him and he signed with another team.
