Maybe I missed him but if he's still there I would love to get Benton from Wisconsin.

Branch just seems like the type of player that the Patriots would've jumped at which could be why the Lions felt the need to make sure they got him.

Keion White looks like he is in his mid to late 30s, I legit thought that was a player's Dad when they showed him.

Wonder if there was another trade cause ESPN has TB at 48 on their graphic.

Riley Moss could still be a possibility and on the board when we pick again to keep up the Bama and Iowa streak.

Dare I say could it be for Hooker?

Lions on the clock after trading with GB. Director in the truck made sure to cue that bumper music and go to commercial as soon as he saw that.

LaPorta scouting report and stats show that he is really good at breaking tackles, I don't remember if Hock was like that in college too but I always felt that was something he was lacking with the Lions atleast from my vantage point. It just seemed to me that as soon as a guy put a hand on him he was going down, rarely did it seem like he would break tackles for more YAC. One of his last or maybe his last game here where he had that real monster game was one of the few times we ever seen it. Hopefully LaPorta can make plays like Hock did in that game more consistently.

I think there's still a few solid DBs left before you hit another drop off so I think it would be wise for Brad to snag one of them with this next pick and not risk waiting or else you may end up with one that is a tier or 2 lower.

Walter Football had Laporta as the best TE in the class and 20th prospect overall. So atleast one outlet agrees with Holmes.

RB, ILB and TE first 3 picks. Holmes is like screw your positional values.

Have to assume the Titans are trading up for Levis or Hooker.

As has been mentioned sometimes you have to reach a little to insure you get the player you like, particularly if they are viewed as 1 of the top 2 or 3 players at their position cause all it would take is one of the 31 other teams to decide they want to go with that position and your player could very well be gone before you pick again.

Colts Owner Jim Irsay on twitter asking fans how they would feel about the Colts drafting Levis if he is there at 35. Keep up the smoke screen Jim maybe it will entice a team to trade up to 32 or 33 to take him.

I don't get where you get consensus from. PFF has Campbell 1, Walter Football had him 1, Draftbuzz had him 1, Scouts Inc. had him 1 in fact I've seen far more people have him 1 than at 3.

Id be fine if we took one with our 2nd or 3rd pick today but Id rather use 34 on another position partuclarly a DB.

The guy from Scouts Inc. has a 2nd rd mock on ESPN and he has us taking Mayer(lol at the meltdown that would cause), the DE from Northwestern whos name escapes me and Ringo.

With the addition of Jack, MCDC is now only the 2nd manliest Campbell on the team.

An 11 Jack Campbell defense would rival the 85 Bears and 00 Ravens.

I would love Turner, Benton and Tillman.

Yep sad, what makes it even sadder is that it's not like this is just a 1 or even 2 season thing. This is now 7 seasons of sub par at best to atrocious at worst seasons. In that time he's only hit 61 HRs total, which is just insane to think about.

I don't think the guys they took were necessarily reaches in terms of the players ability, people just think they're reaches based off of position value so I think that makes it different. Gibbs was the consensus number 2 back and best available and Campbell was either 1A or 1B at his position. That means if you really wanted them theres a good chance you were gonna have to use a 1st on them cause all it would've took was 1 team to decide they want that position and they would've been gone. Its obvious the Lions didn't want to take that chance and wait till the 2nd rd to try to get them.

Look at the grades of the players not the rankings. Again it has been said for months that the guys from 10-40ish are very similar and can almost be interchangeable. It's just that somebody has got to be 10 and somebody 40 even though they are almost equal players.

I definitely want to get a DB preferably Porter but if not him there is Turner and Moss who both seem to be of the grade to pick in the 2nd. Also want a WR preferably Tillman. The other pick Id be fine with guard or just going non rb bpa.

If witherspoon was indeed their guy I would like to see how they reacted when the pick was made.
