Millen had just wasted a pick on Gosder Cherilus and after he picked Dizon I couldn't watch the rest of the draft. That 2008 draft class, outside of the running gag of Andre Fluellen always returning and getting Cliff Avril, was a nice cap off to Millen's terrible drafting record. Quote
RandyMarsh Posted March 25, 2022 Posted March 25, 2022 (edited) Ill never forget the 08 draft, me and my roommates were throwing one last big party up in CMU before we left so like 30 of us were day drinking watching the draft. Cherilus gets picked and I believe it was Kiper who said something like "wow I had him as a 3rd round grade", that quote remains an inside joke among us during our fantasy drafts. Anytime somebody reaches for a player one of us will say "wow I had as a (insert later round) grade" Btw on the subject of Teez, yeah we know about his 40 but was that the reason he sucked? I only watched him a couple times and the times I watched him he was staying with the receiver he just couldn't make any plays on the ball. Edited March 25, 2022 by RandyMarsh Quote
Motown Bombers Posted March 25, 2022 Posted March 25, 2022 The best one was Tavai. ESPN didn't even have a highlight package for Tavai. They have highlight packages for 7th rounders and undrafted free agents and not for a 2nd round pick. 1 Quote
RandyMarsh Posted March 25, 2022 Posted March 25, 2022 Yeah Tavai not having a package was hilarious, I also remember that happening to Gerald Alexander the safety out of Boise St. we drafted way back when. I think he either went in the 2nd or early 3rd and the hosts were like "were gonna try to get you more information on the pick but we werent expecting him to be drafted so early. " Quote

I only watched him a couple times and the times I watched him he was staying with the receiver he just couldn't make any plays on the ball. I know by 08 we all as a collective fanbase probably wanted Millen gone but I remember just screaming at the TV loudly after the Cherlius and Dizon picks. I had read through online mock drafts and had seen Cherilus mocked in the late 1st and early 2nd rounds I think, so I at least knew who this guy was. I hadn't seen Jordan Dizon mocked in a single draft and remember screaming "who the f*** is this bum" at the TV when Millen picked him. Once ESPN showed his stats and I saw that he was a 5'11, 220 OLB I was done and turned the TV off and didn't watch the rest of the draft. I think with Tabor he is both too slow to cover NFL WRs and just not good at press or man coverage. There isn't anything he does well and he doesn't have the speed to compensate for it by at least keeping up with the guys he's running with, so he gets beat either way. Quote
buddha Posted March 25, 2022 Posted March 25, 2022 i really hope we draft a linebacker or two this year... Quote

Campbell is either going to win within a few years or we'll just be repeating this again..and again..and again. Quote
MichiganCardinal Posted March 28, 2022 Posted March 28, 2022 I think this could be a real opportunity for MCDC to sell Detroit to the greater NFL players community before we start really looking to compete in 2023. Quote
