It’s Gores so there’s got to be some beneficial tax angle to it. Maybe he needs to add some losses to his books.

It’s the Cialis.

You guys can keep pontificating on if they take BPA or need. I’ll take word of Brad and Dan on what they do. Holmes said at last week's Annual League Meetings in Orlando that nothing changes in his process of taking the best player available no matter the draft slot. Lions head coach Dan Campbell mentioned that the pre-draft process and work they've been putting in preparing for the draft is the same it's always been, and so too is the philosophy of just taking the best player on their board when it's their time on the clock. "Since we've been here, we've really, 'Man, draft the best player available,'" Campbell said in Orlando. "Don't let the 'man, we absolutely have to have a linebacker. We absolutely have to have (blank).' Just go with what you believe is going to fit your team and what you feel like is the best player at the time." https://www.detroitlions.com/news/late-first-round-pick-won-t-change-lions-draft-strategy We don't really get anchored on position, we don't really get anchored on windows," Holmes explained. "We just look for guys we're convicted on that are the right fit for us." https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/news/detroit-lions-brad-holmes-nfl-draft-trades-new-uniforms/7aaab8095a5d4c200443fbb0 When Campbell spoke with The Athletic shortly after his hire, he all but promised that the Lions would lean into a best-player-available approach at the draft. “If this guy’s a fit,” Campbell said, “if he’s the best guy and we love him but we’re stacked at the position, we probably ought to still get him.” Campbell added that he’d rather have an abundance of high-quality players at one spot — and maybe have to trade one to solve the issue — than to make decisions just to fill out the depth chart: “I don’t want to get caught in, well, we don’t have one of these.” https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/2600284/2021/05/21/lions-gm-brad-holmes-qa-draft-strategy-penei-sewells-appeal-and-building-a-roster-from-scratch/ There are plenty more direct quotes from the men on their draft strategy.

Glad to see Paolo’s name. That means it’s not real. He’s only played 14 games

They should go with something that makes no sense to play along with the Jazz nickname. Utah Seals Utah Blue Wave Utah Wolverines

I agree that if you have a surplus at a position you shouldn’t pick it in the early rounds, especially at a single starter role like QB, RB, C, TE. Even eliminating those positions of surplus from their board, they still make the decision based on best player available and not the best player available to fill a current need.

Myles Turner still plays with Lego’s

The Utah Wasatch could be the worst team name ever thought up.

Publicly questioning moderation decisions is also a violation of forum rules. I’m confident they will let you off with a warning this time but it’s not my call.

As we have learned, a majority of the voting public are ill informed and easily manipulated by social media. These appointees struggling to answer for their past or outright lying make for good content down the road.

Poppy loves you! ❤️

JB has been fantastic this season but I hope this is him publicly sticking up for his player while telling him something different in private. Whatever was said worked exactly how the Pacers player wanted it to. He got in Stew’s head and now everyone in the league knows he’ll fall for it. He hurt his team. He has to learn to control himself because now it’s going happen quite a bit and in more crucial situations. Nobody in the league has it worse than Scotty Pippen Jr. If he can handle the things said to him on the court then Stew can too.

Crazy to think the Clippers traded SGA and five 1st round picks for Paul George. Even better is they did it to try make Kawai happy. So dumb.

Grit doesn’t need free agents!

Makes perfect sense but I am not sure about that. Brad is on record saying they don’t draft for need. They try to use free agency for needs as they are more immediate. Draft is for developing future players and since needs change they want the best football player that fits their system.

Exactly my point. It’s not some deep secret either. I don’t know why none of these draft expers predict a player for the Lions with the reason that he’s the highest remaining player on their draft board. All these guys create a draft board so this should be their easiest to pick.

So, this is Mike Green. Not sure this guy is going to be around at #28 anyway.

Once again, check it out if you haven’t watched the Stalions Netflix documentary. At least to this point, he’s been the one hurt the most from this entire thing. He’s cooked as a college coach. Nobody will ever touch him. He really didn’t do anything wrong. The genius in what he did wasn’t in the videos. It was his system. The videos were just data. They weren’t the differentiator in why his system was better than others. It would be like saying a Ferrari has more performance than a Mustang because it uses better gasoline. The guy is savant with military regimen and work ethic. If not one of the Harbaugh’s, new Raiders GM John Spytek and fellow Michigan man Tom Brady should find a spot for him in their scouting department. The NFL doesn’t care about what happened and he’s someone that can move up the pro coaching ladder quickly.

NFL.com Bucky Brooks 1st Mock Draft As a “draft expert” this guy should know that lack of pass rush down the stretch won’t be a factor in the pick. I don’t know jack about Mike Green from Marshall. He may end up as the pick but it will be due to the fact that he’s the highest player on their draft board. Especially at #28, it will be the main and probably only determiner for who Brad selects.

Are these bootlicking losers really trying to say that it was a random computer error that shut down the Medicaid portal and it wasn’t because of Trumps EO?

The Raiders QB situation depends on how much Pittsburgh wants Russ to return.
