I suspect the Jaymo suspension made them a bit more anxious to lock down Gibbs than they might have been otherwise.

I guess they plan to run and stop the run.

Holmes almost broke Rod Wood in two.

There were two potentially game changing RBs. We got one. Figure 18 will be best CB available.

Charlie Campbell had the Gibbs pick this morning.

Any of the rest of you on Twitter?

Charlie Campbell you magnificent bastard.

“We wanted to control the second round.”

Got to be Gonzalez.

Detroit is on the clock. Another trade back?

Two B-tier players are better than one B-tier player.

I was thinking the same thing. 😂🤷🏻‍♂️

Maybe they want Gibbs. Charlie C had that rumor earlier.

Carter to Philly.

Things not falling to Holmes this year.

Plan B was clearly to trade down. Which is better than taking a guy you don’t love with a top pick.

Tyree’s foot may not be healed.

Witherspoon seems to have been their guy. Few mocks had him going before six.

I agree they are probably looking at Bijan at 12. Would they pick Carter there?

I guess Carter is off their draft board.

Looks like 12 and 34.

He is also floating the rumor that Tyree Wilson's foot surgery didn't take and at least one team drafting in the top ten dropped him off their board. Let's hope that is the Lions. We do not need to take another injured DL with a top pick.

Yes, and Chicago has two firsts next year. Wouldn’t it be nice to have the ammunition that may make it possible to interfere with their draft plans in 2024?

Most of the TE to Detroit talk is from national media who only know a few things about the Lions, one of which is the Hockenson trade. I don’t believe that Holmes thinks the position is a weakness, but it is a deep TE draft and if a TE ends up being the BPA they will take him. If Carter is on the board at 6, I haven’t heard anything that would make me not take him. Witherspoon seems like a great fit, but I’m not thrilled about him at 6. I feel better about Gonzalez’s physical tools at 6 (but still not great), but he doesn’t seem to be as good of a fit as Witherspoon. If Bijan is there at 18, the defense has improved enough through FA and pick #6 to take him.
