DETROIT (AP) -- The Detroit Lions will trade cornerback Dre' Bly to the Denver Broncos for running back Tatum Bell, offensive tackle George Foster and a fifth-round pick, a person with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press on Thursday.
The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because the trade can't be finalized until Friday.
Both teams seemed to fill needs with the move, which gives Denver a Pro Bowl caliber player to replace the late Darrent Williams and allows Detroit to have more options in free agency and with the No. 2 pick overall in April. The Lions gave Bly, who has one year left on his contract, permission to seek a trade and seemed to add assets instead of releasing him with nothing to show for it.www.ksdk.com/sports/sports_article.aspx?storyid=113807

Seems like Detroit got an awful lot for a guy entering the final year of his contract. He was talking about walking after the season.
