The Lions defense immediately got better after they got Snacks. If Martin can eat space and free up and LB and pass rushers this could turn into a solid pick. The Lions got gashed in the run at times last year. They seem to be addressing that with Campbell and now Martin. They had already addressed the pass defense and they have spent resources in the past on pass rushers.
-
Honestly, I think they just wanted to get rid of some picks. They're coming away with 6 players in the top 100 and still have a couple picks left.
-
This is Snacks Harrison RAS: Run stuffing space eaters are generally not great athletes. They did struggle against the run at times.
-
If he's a space eater who can free up the linebackers it may not be that bad.
-
It all went to hell when Holmes got a hooker.
-
-
This seems to go against Holmes strategy of drafting top athletes.
-
He's even less athletic than Tavai. I guess the upside is he could be a Snacks Harrison type.
-
What an odd pick. Hooker and now Martin? Is there a carbon monoxide leak in the Lions draft room?
-
I think Brodric Martin ate all the Lions picks.
-
The post I was quoting was literally suggesting Goff was going to cost too much and that's why you move on to Hooker. If they are unwilling to pay Goff then, why would they pay Hooker?
-
But you have Goff for at least one year. You save at most for 3 seasons and you are right back to where you are now. I find this salary cap argument to be weird.
-
Is there a trade? I see Detroit at 96?
-
I mean, if you're not willing to pay Goff why would you pay Hooker?
-
So what happens if Hooker is good? He's going to be almost as old as Goff when it comes time to sign him.
-
If I would have said I love the Hooker pick, Buddha would then attack me as being a homer since I was against taking a QB before the draft. It is a no win situation.
-
Willis and Corral were drafted in the 3rd last year and both of those teams are drafted QBs high the very next year. Thankfully they both passed on Kerby Joseph.
-
Actually I didn't. I was asking why you didn't trust Holmes since that is all you talked about before the draft until he drafted a player you didn't like.
-
Judging by the amount of followers I would say yes. He's also followed by a lot of trusted NFL people.
-
Weird from the guy who kept saying trust Holmes before the draft.
-
Everything people complain about Goff: Weaknesses: More of a game manager than a playmaker Arm strength is adequate, but not special Limited passer
-
I read a report that the x-rays did not look good on Wilson's foot and some teams felt he was going to need surgery again.
-
I was pretty clear before the draft I didn't want to draft a QB so I'm not sure who this is directed at.
-
I feel better with Campbell handling this QB situation than McVay.
-
I'm sure they did and they drafted him knowing he's likely not going to be on the roster to start the season so he doesn't add depth, at least to start the season.
