  1. So if China was making a biological weapon, it once again would be dependent on Trump being too incompetent to handle it. Plus, China released it within their own borders when they could have easily smuggled it into the US and released it instead of in their own country and relied on Trump being too incompetent with a headstart on the virus.
  2. They had a chance at a better QB than Richardson and more uncertainty around Goff and they still took Sewell.
  3. What mattered is whether the teams behind the Lions were drafting a QB. It literally makes no sense. We're moving on from Matthew Stafford and are going to draft our future QB, but if you trade with us we'll stick with Stafford and change our plans. The Giants weren't taking a QB so Miami had no reason to trade up for Tua.
  4. Sewell ran almost as fast as St Brown. I don't think this team puts emphasis on 40 times. Campbell even said as much. I remember when Holmes was introduced he talked about the Rams using GPS and measuring in game speed. I don't think a slow 40 time will matter if he has good game speed.
  5. I would not be surprised at all if one of the two 1st round picks is an offensive player. I'm coming around to Bijan Robinson. If they are committed to Goff, Goff is at his best with a strong running game that he can play action pass off of. Swift is in the final year of his contract. Williams is a free agent. I like the move if he truly is the dynamic dual threat running and receiving back.
  6. And Desantis looks just as ridiculous in those Air Force ads as Dukakis did in that tank.
  7. I feel like Jalen Carter on a Josh McDaniels team is a disaster waiting to happen.
  8. I used to never be a big culture guy, but then I saw the Quinn/Patricia and Holmes/Campbell regimes back to back and am becoming a big believer. I'm not sure Carter would fit a Patricia team from a culture standpoint either.
  9. The Adrian Peterson signing was dumb even from a football perspective.
  10. No I wouldn't have at the time. Ray Lewis was a late 1st round pick. It's not like he was even considered a top tier talent at the time of the draft.
  11. When I was 21 I was never involved in reckless behavior that resulting in people being killed. A couple hundred young players are going to get drafted who haven't engaged in that behavior either. He also seems determined to be exonerated and not self reflective.
  12. Isn't that Paschal? Strong on the edge against the run? Houston is likely to be a pass rushing specialist. I would probably prefer to keep Okwara based on talent. Okwara's contract is off the books after this year so really keeping Okwara doesn't do much for signing free agents. They just take a lower cap hit this year.
  13. Yeah I'm not sure why he doesn't just pay the token fine and make it go away.
  14. And signed John Cominsky who was productive and cheaper.
  15. The Lions drafted Decker to replace Reiff. Wagner was signed for less money so I'm not sure the problem. The Lions have plenty of defensive ends. In fact, they have too many. Hutchinson replaced Okwara as the top pass rusher on the team.
  16. Here's another thing, the Lions don't have players with big long term deals on the books which means their cap is wide open in the future and can easily sign their current star players like Sewell and St Brown while adding others. As it stands, the Lions are projected to have $122 million in cap space next year and $236 million in 2025.
  17. They've already cut Brockers which added $10 million. Cutting those three players you mentioned adds about $18 million. They could add about another $12 million if they restructure Goff.
  18. About $40 million and that doesn't include any restructure of Goff.
