I’d love to add the next Alvin Kamara to this offense. I want them to find him in the 3rd round just like the Saints did with Kamara. These guys are so fragile and the shelf life is short that it adds to the risk of taking one so high. Even if they don’t bust, the durability on almost all of them is so low. Barkley and CMC are great players taken top 10 but both have been injured and played in less than 75% of games which is less reliable than Swift, who you guys already complain about missing too many games. In today’s NFL, I’m not so sure it’s even a good idea to ever sign a RB to a 2nd contract. The fall off is so quick along with damage that it seems best to draft them outside the first and keep changing out every 4 years. Really effective new ones pop up every single draft now in the later rounds. I’d hate to spend the 6th pick on someone that it probably doesn’t make sense to extend beyond their rookie deal. It does sound like you are off the idea of spending 6 on him so maybe it makes more sense at 18 but I still think they need to place their 1st round bets in other areas.

I’d be disappointed if they drafted any RB in the first round. It’s the least valued position in the league and there are ton of options in both the later rounds as well as many proven backs in free agency. This would be a luxury pick and they still have multiple needs that are more scarce and harder to find than RB. First round picks are especially important assets for a franchise that hasn’t been to the playoffs for 6 years. They need to be able to maximize the value of these and I don’t think taking a RB would do that.

Littlefinger is such slime. I wonder what those same Lions employees would say about him if Sheila were to shitcan his ass. Sadly, it will never happen since he’s so deeply grifted himself into the family’s business ventures.

That extra year of control is huge and especially if you have a developmental QB. Sounds crazy to say but I would be more surprised to see him go round 2 than in late round 1.

I’m not interested in him personally but what I do find interesting is where he could go. I could see him anywhere from late round 1 all the way down to round 4. So much uncertainty on him and not sure we will find out until draft day.

He’s been focusing more on setting his teammates up for shots. Sorry, that was terrible. Dad jokes for the heartless.

I’m on record now that Aston is 100% cheating and will eventually get busted for exceeding spending limits and possibly other rules. Larry will never pass up an opportunity to use his wealth to get ahead. After watching RB go over the limit and only get hit with a multi-million dollar fine, he had to see an opening and jumped at whatever means necessary. He will gladly pay a 7 figure fine to have a top of the grid car.

Oh my. It’s the curse of Binotto.

Not even at lap 4 and Max is running away with this race. Gaining a second a lap on the field. Aston once again showing their biggest weakness is nepotism.

The size may be the same but the skills are still different. Kyler was/is a speed burner with electric moves. An uncanny ability to use his feet to avoid big contact. That is not Bryce Young. I’m not sure that he’ll even run a 40 at his workout. I’d guess he’s 4.55 or 4.6. He doesn’t run a lot and is very much a pocket passer. I’ve always thought he was too small and a lesser version of Tua.

Great circuit for passing and excitement. It’s going to be a fun race but the fight will most likely be for 3rd position. Who knows though

Any game that Buddy Boeheim gets in is a good one.

This argument is as dumb as putting cheez whiz on cheesesteak.

Only if he’s willing to just go with Wheaton. No more Fords.

Anthony Richardson is absolutely going to tempt someone in the top 3 picks.

Let’s give it time. I think he’s got far stupider still to come.

This combine has highlighted how good Mike Locksley is as a recruiter and how terrible he is as football coach.

I say we pass on him because he’s David Blough’s brother in law.

Metcalf is probably a bad example. His 40 was off the charts but the 3 cone time was the worst among all WR. There were serious questions about his agility and if he just had straight line speed. He was also coming off injury.

We can now add thunder snow as a Detroit thing.

I’m not sure any of the combine numbers will make a real difference for who the Lions select. They have proven to be more about the tape and on field performance than the workout numbers. What it does do for them is set a market value and where they can expect to pick some of the guys they really like. A average combine for a player they like probably helps them a ton. I bet Brad and Co. high five each other when a guy they like on tape turns in a slow time.

Looks like we may really have a battle at the top. Amazing what is happening at Aston. Firing Otmar may have been the best thing that happened to them. Props to Larry for being a billionaire prick, it obviously can pay off.

They know the family and he’d have great support with the Lions. Good character and hard worker. Will 100% fit the culture. That’s a good chunk of the off field box that’s already checked with him.

I guess the 4.72 posted was unofficial and his official time was 4.64. That’s much better and moves him out of the dreaded 4.7 slow area.

What happened to Carlos?
