The Detroit Lions are currently going through a phase that will bring significant changes to the organization, but not all moves thusfar have been subtractions.
Earlier in the month, the team officially hired former 3-time All Pro Chris Spielman as special assistant to the owner and CEO. Prior to his new job with the club he suited up for during his playing career, he’d been serving as a game analyst for FOX NFL.
The move has elicited positive feedback from fans and commentators alike, and now one additional commentator has offered his opinion.
Former quarterback and current analyst Troy Aikman praised the move, saying that Spielman is the right guy for the position:

Are you in agreement with what Aikman had to say?
Maybe this time the Lions will get it right!! We need solid people from GM to Head Coach to Coordinators!! Chris will make right! We should involve Barry Sanders in some form! Just an idea!!
