2023 NFL Draft As-It-Happens

michael mayer at 18 would be the ultimate kick in the balls.

[Motown Bombers]

Holmes and Campbell seem excited at least. 

[MichiganCardinal]

I don’t think the pick was a reach. Gibbs was a top ten talent in this draft.

But in the context of the trade, I don’t really get it.

[buddha]

matt millen is smiling somewhere.

[Tenacious D]

Would Gibb’s have been there at 18?

[sagnam]

Does anyone wonder if Holmes dozed off and when he woke up though it was pick 34?

[Motown Bombers]

His NFL.com comparison is Alvin Kamara. Hopefully that's an on the field comparison.

How about 34?

[RedRamage]

So the Lions beat the Packers... now ESPN goes to commercial before GB's pick... guess the Lions are the new kings in the North. 🙂

Robinson was widely regarded as the best running back prospect in recent years, but Gibbs isn’t that kind of prospect. Even if you think a running back is worth a first-round pick, it’s hard to imagine why you’d think Gibbs is that running back.

Lions at No. 12 take Alabama running back Jahmyr Gibbs

 

ahahahahahahha!

alright.  ive calmed down.  i still trust you brad.  dont let me down and draft a tight end at 18.

gibbs was a fast mover in the laat week.  walterfootball gave us an A.  twitter loves it for the most part.

It seems like a reach but him and Bijan were the clear top 2 RBs so all it would've taken was 1 more team that wanted to take a RB and he would've been gone. Probably would've been there at 18 but if you didn't want to miss out on 1 of the top 2 RBs then just take him there and not risk missing out on him. 

[RandyMarsh]

Still would've preferred to just take Bijan at 6. 

[buddha]

we have no cornerbacks signed after next year and we took ANOTHER running back.  can we please draft a corner?  

[Jason_R]

There were two potentially game changing RBs. We got one. Figure 18 will be best CB available. 

[Tenacious D]

Gibbs sounds like a bigger Swift.  Hopefully more durable.

[Motown Bombers]

I like Gibbs as a player but 12, yikes. Holmes has earned the benefit of the doubt and they seemed happy with the pick. 

[buddha]

at least the leafs lost.

if they take a tight end at 18 this board will explode.

If you wish it into existence...

TE then Hooker.  Let's go!

Amazing that Rodgers cost the Jets the guy they wanted.

[Motown Bombers]

Packers still adverse to drafting a WR in the 1st.
