If i had on nitpick with this draft it would have been trading up for Moore when there were a few edges still on the board if he was hellbent on drafting an edge there. There was still quite a bit of talent left in the fourth. Other than that it will be interesting to see how Rolder and Moore fit in the defense since they are a bit different Anzelone and Davenport. Also hoping that they have some cap space left for DJ Reader, I hate having to rely on Levi.

Crosby has been to 5 straight pro-bowls, All Pro 3 times, and received DPOY top ten finishes twice. That is a pretty high bar for Moore. I watched a bunch of Michigan games and i don't think he ever really took over a game like Hutchinson or Graham did. I would expect a maybe 10-12 sack at his peek with decent run defense kind of player.

Hooker came out of that Josh Heupel offense which doesn't translate well to the NFL. It emphasizes quick reads and taking off if they aren't there. If he could process complex defenses was unknown pretty much. And ultimately why he failed is he was lost post snap. It was a gamble i think they thought they could make because they had a bunch of picks. It kind of began a trend of making some bad decisions with 3rd and 4th round picks, or at least decisions that look bad in retrospect.

Rolder has a lengthy injury history so he checked that box.

Wrong Michigan guy, Jimmy Rolder. Hope he can cover.

They had Rayshaun Benny in, he might be the pick here. Wouldn't mind Kyle Louis though.

The worst part of watching the draft is listening to these random fans and ex-players announce picks. STFU and read the card!

Seems like he would have been there at 50.

Detroit moved up OTC

Good Christen Miller is gone.

That sounds like Brad. I would rather they add some speed to the LB and edge group. I like Jacob Rodriguez as well. Miller's scouting report is that he is a 325 pound one tech, just like Tyleik.

I think, in the first round, when you are 4-13 you go BPA, with a possible 1-2 postion group exception. When you are 13-4 you go need, narrowed down to 1-2 postion groups. Brad has been in both of those situations and for the most part drafted that way.

I hope they are not locked into an edge with the next pick. They could use help at CB, LB and safety also.

Pretty much all of the first round OT's are gone by 21. Ioane also.

Must be some truth to McCoy's knee not being fully healed.

There are a bunch left, i wouldn't. It would cost a ton too.

They went with the pro ready guy over upside. They had Millers comp as Decker.

Glenn will take his Amon Ra here.

Freeling then.

They have a starting edge in Wonnum.

Bain or Freeling, who you taking?

Brad doesn't stay put. I would prefer moving back and gathering more picks but that is easier said than done.

Yes from week 6 through 17 not counting week 9 or 11 he was the 10th rated pass blocking OT.

Downs would be good value. He is more of a Brian Branch type than a CF'er though. If Branch comes back they could put one of them in the slot. I think the Lions need to add speed to the defense though. I would like to see an edge that can't double as a three tech, but can actually play in space. And some faster LB'ers also.

I don't believe these reports that come out in the days prior to the draft. Hopefully the Lions did their homework on him and know what the severity of the injury is. Because we already have our chronically injured CB spot filled.
