  1. I wouldn't trade 3 1sts for Lamar Jackson. I was thinking something like Goff and a 1st for Jackson. Not sure about Kyler Murray but I don't either are worth more than what the Rams traded for Stafford.
  2. There's also the possibility Matthew Stafford has a season ending injury in training camp and the Rams implode and are drafting 4th or higher.
  3. We'll also see how much QBs want to play for Campbell. I'm kind of leaning towards the disgruntled veteran route.
  4. When I look at that Bears roster, I have a feeling the Lions aren't going to be finishing last in the division. It's pretty bare around Fields and they drafted defensive guys with what picks they had. I would rather throw Fields on the Lions roster that projects to have a good OL, receivers, TE and solid run game. I wouldn't rule out a veteran. Lamar Jackson is in the last year of his contract. He seems upset the Ravens traded away his receiver. The Ravens likely franchise him but he could be a trade candidate. I'm not a fan of QBs like Jackson long term, but he could be someone to watch.
  5. If the Lions are picking 4th, it likely means the young players underperformed or were injured. I would rather see the young player perform well and they win. They really have a nice foundation on offense. They have draft capital to trade if they have to.
  6. There was a point time in which I thought Lindsey Graham wasn't crazy. No Republican can be trusted.
  7. This is the prove it year for Goff. Even if Goff does prove it, they are going to be in a precarious position. Do you give him a big extension then? I could see doing what Minnesota did with Cousins and tack another year on his contract.
  8. Mike Vrabel was hired as head coach after one year as defensive coordinator in which his defense ranked dead last. Vrabel's defense gave up the same PPG as Glenn's. In Glenn's case, he inherited a defense that was the 2nd worst of all time.
  9. That's nothing. Here they actually shut down freeways to drag race and do donuts. Turns out the main culprit was a white kid from the suburbs.
  10. If Goff discovers his 2018 form, Ben Johnson may be a head coach before Glenn.
  11. That's the sign of a good team. Your coordinators get hired as head coaches and your assistants get hired as coordinators for other team. If Glenn gets a head coaching job, you just promote Pleasant. Being able to develop your own coaches is underrated and rarely talked about.
  12. Rodriguez seems to be more of the modern day LB. Smaller, fast and athletic who can play pass coverage vs the big, physical, hole filler like Tavai. Don't the Lions run more of a 4-2-5 defense anyways?
  13. Provided everyone is healthy on offense, and that is a big if, this offense projects to be pretty good. You have a very good offensive line with Decker-Ragnow-Sewell and Jackson was even a Pro Bowler. You have outside threats in Chark and Williams, again health being a big question, you have St Brown in the slot and good depth with Reynolds as your number four. Hockenson at TE and another pass receiving TE in Mitchell plus a solid 1-2 combination in RB with Swift and Williams and there is no excuse for Goff. This is a make or break year for Goff. I'm also anxious to see Ben Johnson as OC. Goff and this offense were a lot better when he and Campbell took over.
  14. I think this is going to be the draft that defines Holmes career. He had the choice of the two top pass rushers, did he choose the right one? Jameson Williams is the first big piece of the Stafford trade. Was it the right move? This is the draft where Holmes needs to lay down the foundation.
  15. 6 of the Lions 8 picks are defensive players.
  16. I was not aware Jason is Aaron's brother.
