Motor City Sonics

Malcom Rodriguez, Oklahoma State, LB

Lions on the clock............

And he'll probably start 4 or 5 games this year when Hock gets hurt again.

Lions pick again in 3 picks.

TE James Mitchell, Va Tech.

Just a rule I like to go by is waiting 3 years to grade a draft, by 3 years you know whether someone is good, still has potential or is a bust. The measure of success is only considered for how they did as a Lion, not elsewhere. 1st Round T.J. Hockenson. B-. He's good, and if he was drafted late in the first round or in another other round, he's an A, but with the #7 pick in the draft, you'd better be really really good. He's just good. There is still hope, but there have been a lot of injuries. It's a big prove-it year for Hock. 2nd Round Jahlani Tavai F - So much of a reach that when his name was called ESPN said nothing about him and showed zero highlights - because I don't think they had any idea who he was and he proved it. One of Quinn's worst pick, and that's a decent list. I think some mole in New England talked this guy up and suckered Quinn. He would have been a decent 6th round pick. 3rd Round Will Harris D - Never has developed, takes bad routes on tackles, gets burned frequently and is so bad as a safety that when they had to move him to CB at the end of last year because of injuries, he was better there. 4th Round Austin Bryant C- So underwhelming that I had to double check to see if he even played last year 5th Round Amani Oruwariye A - Great pick for the 5th round. The Lions best corner? Makes plenty of mistakes still, but you got a starter in the 5th round and that's good. 6th Round Travis Fulgham F - Never caught a ball for the Lions. 6th Round Ty Johnson. D 273 yards in 0 touchdowns for the Lions 7th Round Isaac Nauta D 3 catches for 16 yards in 13 games for the Lions. He gets a D because if a 7th rounder even makes a team, it should be considered a mild success. 7th Round PJ Johnson, DE F Never played This is the kind of a draft that gets people fired............so in that regard, you can call this a success. D- (avoids an F because of Amani, which is interesting because if Patricia had coached another year, he probably would have had no success at all.)

New England's success was a combination of getting away with cheating and Tom Brady.

A year ago on the say after the draft, the mocks for 2022 came out and Sam Howell was #1 overall. Washington just took him in the 5th round. Now that's a fall.

Blashill, Houda and Goalie Coach Jeff Salajko all "not renewed" I hope Blashill gets the Michigan State gig, he'll do a great job there and bring them back from the abyss.

Blashill out.

I didn't have high expectations. .500 was a reasonable goal, but this team looks exactly like last April's team. I did expect more than that...

Do you realize there is more hope for the Lions right now than the Tigers? Are they over-coaching these guys right now, more concerned with launch angle than just hitting the damn ball. Maybe they should just not have Schoop get his Visa until May 1st.

Seattle seems like an obvious landing spot for Baker Mayfield, but what are the Browns asking for? Anything higher than a 4th round pick would be ridiculous. Cleveland has no leverage at all here.

Can they send Candy down? I'd be willing to give Kody Clemens a try. They really need to try anything at this point. This team is a disaster. Can't call up Kreidler now, he'll be out until July. It just sucks, every thing sucks. This whole town wants to get behind a team - ANY TEAM, but they all build us up just to let us down. I don't get this insistence to put Candy & Schoop back-to-back. That's a black hole in the lineup where rallies. light and hope go to die.

I really didn't like starting him in the rotation, but they had little choice with Peralta and Pineda not being ready and injuries to Mize and Manning. He is better out of the pen and as a spot starter.

Will Harris looked alright at CB actually.

AND THE PICK IS.......... KERBY JOSEPH, S, ILLINOIS

Colts take Safety Nick Cross.......... THE LIONS ARE ON THE BOARD.................... COSTANZA'S IN THE BUILDING !

Colts just moved into the Broncos slot.

One more pick until the Lions................When they go to a commercial, that's when you'll know the Lions pick is in.

Texans make sense. Davis Mills insurance? He's from Texas

Man, you can ride one hit for years. Modern English still tour off of ONE song.

Why not? Corral might need a couple years.

Panthers take Corral.................Sam still there.

Gonna stick by my call of Tariq Woolen
