Because a touchdown went right through Swift's hands. Said Tate was stopped short and did not give a damn. And the flag that was picked up by the refs in the Dallas game . . . still remains. Within the same old Lions.

Let me preface this by saying that beyond my instant reaction on draft night about them building a team like it's 1980, I like most all of what Holmes did. I wanted both Gibbs and Campbell. I just wanted them a round later. But it's clear that other teams, including the Lions, had them slotted to go a lot higher than the average internet mock draft or fan had them going. So all and all, I'd give Holmes a solid B for this draft. I'm not wow'ed by it but I understand what happened and why it happened. However, I think there is a debate to be had about positional value. Specifically, about a good player with a potential shelf life of 4-5 years in their prime and a good player with a potential shelf life of 7-8 years in their prime. I think what I'm most interested in looking at is where does Jahmyr Gibbs compare in 3-4 seasons with Tyree Wilson and Jalen Carter. It's pretty much useless to have that debate before the y play a down of football, but certainly something worth revisiting and looking at on down the line.

I guess Gibbs counts as a "WR" given how we are going to use him in this offense. That said, I am surprised they waited this late to draft a true WR.

One of the NFL Network analysts saying he thinks Hooker is the best deep ball thrower in the draft.

Did they really need to trade three picks to go to and get him?

I'm shocked Holmes took a guy with a RAS that low this early in the draft.

Fudge, another one I wanted. Really surprised to see Moody go this high in the draft.

Wished we would have taken Ika there.

YIKES!!!!!! That's an awful RAS. That's like a RAS anyone of us could produce.

Brodric Martin scouting report . . . https://www.nfl.com/prospects/brodric-martin/32004d41-5252-2663-52b8-5b30397ff3b5

I have no clue who Broderick Martin is.

LOL, and there we go. They picked a DT.

I'm surprised they haven't taken a DT yet. I wonder if they feel Levi will be returning sooner rather than later.

Trenton Simpson is a quintessential Ravens picks.

Did the Lions get scared off by Tyree Wilson's foot injury but feel more comfortable dealing with Hooker's injury in the third or was Wilson just likely not high on their board?

Ahhhhhh! Carry on! 😀

Agreed. I'm not sold on this pick. I felt Goff has played well enough to stay on long-term as our starting QB. I saw no need to replace him or waste a pick higher than a 4th rounder on a QB.

I don't think so. I think LaPorta will start from day 1.

He can refuse to negotiate an extension and shutdown negotiations.

Damn, Tillman off the board.

Doesn't Goff realize Hooker is here to replace him at some point? I think he'd see it that way no?

Did Siaki Ika get picked? I'd love to trade up and get him or Cedric Tillman.

Can't wait for the first time Goff makes a mistake and fans explode for Hooker to be put in the game.

Branch and Hooker, he's poking eyes out tonight.

Do you think Goff demands out or refuses to sign an extension if offered.
