Tenacious D

I'm surprised they haven't taken a DT yet. I wonder if they feel Levi will be returning sooner rather than later.

We still have cap room, and probably more now that we won’t sign Bridgewater.  Any left in free agency?

Did the Lions get scared off by Tyree Wilson's foot injury but feel more comfortable dealing with Hooker's injury in the third or was Wilson just likely not high on their board?

I think they realized Wilson wasn’t Gibbs

We can’t tell whether the draft is successful for three years, but we can tell that it is awesome right now.

This has to be the most entertaining Lions draft ever. It’s like a Michael Bay movie.

Remember that time when MichiganCardinal said Henson Hooker was better than Joe Burrow.  

Only thing I’ll remember from this entire draft 

Love trolling the KC fans

They needed depth at more positions than QB and Hooker isn't even going to be on the roster. There's a good chance he starts the season on the IR. 

Pretty sure the Lions checked out his medicals and were fine with him.

wait, i thought we were supposed to trust brad holmes...

We do.  Very odd reaction to getting depth at a position where we needed it.  If Hooker had stayed healthy, he goes in the first round, maybe to Indy.  Great value in the 3rd round, especially where we don’t have any glaring holes elsewhere (and are not done drafting).

Let’s grab Hooker.  Our young players need someone to look up to.

‘Murica!

Space Force!

Jung is seeing the ball tonight...he's homered in his first two AB

Was also removed for a pinch runner after a walk.  Let’s hope it’s nothing.

We have

#63 (2nd round) 

#84 (3rd round)

#122 (4th round)

#152 (5th round)

#168 (5th Round) 

#183 (6th round)

#249 (7th round) 

 

Throw enough on the wall and see what sticks. 

Package 152, 168 and 183 to get an early 4th rounder.  Grab Moody in the 7th.

#249?  You guys are gonna get Moody after all.

Did the lions just trade back?

 

Looks like it—think we’re picking at #63 now.  Trade with KC.  Pretty sure Mahomes is part of it.

Wait until he goes long snapper at #55

Reed over Hyatt and Tillman though? This is more of a reach reach.

Always pick the Spartan.  #GoGreen

The amount of quality free agents and picks we have added to a team that finished 8-2, without losing anyone of significance, is pretty awesome.

I’d like Hooker at 55 if he’s still there.

So, Stafford for Goff, Jamo, Gibbs and LaPorta?

Just watched Jack Campbell’s presser.  Very likable guy—if he performs, he’ll quickly become a fan favorite.

The Miggy situation is unfortunate, but to continue to single him out is a bit unfair. At least he can blame old age.  What about the rest of the lineup?

Serretti > Graham so far in their professional careers, and it’s not been close.

Oh wow did not know that, thanks for the heads up. So if by some miracle Javy opts out and signs elsewhere we wouldn't get a comp for him either then? 

I don’t think we’ll need to worry.
