The Lions now have all but one of their 2014 draft picks under contract except No. 10 overall pick TEย Eric Ebron.
Van Noy’s four-year contract is worth an estimatedย $5,102,098 andย includes a signing bonus of $2,030,620, according toย OverTheCap.com.
Many thought Van Noy would go to team that employed a 3-4 defensive scheme, but he could still end up being an impact player for theย Lions in the not too distant future.
Last year, Van Noy tallied 67 tackles with 17 of them coming for a loss to go along with four sacks and two interceptions at BYU. He also added seven pass defenses and scored a defensive touchdown.
