Any teams ahead of us, drafting positions we aren't in dire need of, is a good, good thing for us! https://youtu.be/1HW4ej9q_dU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might be as wrong as I have ever been about a player I was absolutely certain would hit. I had a huge grade on him. If he was in this class my grade on him would have him clear as the best player in the class. Think it all but locks in corner for the Lions at #6. They did sign Moseley, Sutton, and Gardner-Johnson fwiw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is giving up a 3rd or 4th for a $10 million DT who isn’t a run stuffer, has 2.5 sacks, and is in the last year of his contract? and this dude must be cooked because Detroit needs all the D 😉, they can get. Still like buying low on a top 5 pick for Atlanta. Low risk, high reward and you could move him to S if his speed doesn’t come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea Moseley isn't a guy you want as your #1 outside, Sutton is best as a nickel and G-J is a safety. The only way they don't go corner is if they go Jalen Carter.

Stud prospect with no injury concerns coming out. Sometimes a GM does everything right and still rolls snake eyes.

Lions have had enough apparently. doesnt mean he cant still be a good player, if he stays healthy. 23 hours ago, 1ManRaid said: I'm looking forward to seeing the golden child of his rookie class (Sauce) start racking up illegal contact penalties this year now the league has gotten their year of novelty out of him. It's going to be glorious when the diva in New York City's media goes apecrap publicly over all the penalties. was thinking the same thing. ive never seen a rookie CB get less calls while being blatantly obvious. almost felt like he paid all the refs off.

Depends how they fall, if someone wants to jump LV or Atlanta they're in a great spot to trade down. Tampa or Washington come to mind. They can also possibly sit there and get the top scouted corner in the draft. On the other hand... the top scouted corner in the draft is the reason for this thread.

loveorhatembillsfan4life Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 Detroit is going to be so fun to watch. Learning how to win those close games last season and following their enthusiastic head coach, momentum is moving in the right direction. I have a friend down here who was a bit slow to renew his season tickets and lost out on the first and second levels of seating. Seeing the Gm make a move to recoup some assets now is another positive sign of a better run organization. 2 first round draft picks, I think it’s great to see.
