There's Matt Patricia! Pats traded up. Maybe it's for a 260lbs. LB?

NFL.com gave Paschal a round 3 grade.

Here's the NFL.com scouting report on Paschal . . . https://www.nfl.com/prospects/joshua-paschal/32005041-5306-8486-93fc-0cae1c9cca7f Emmanuel Ogbah is the comparison they give.

Damn, Bears get Brisker.

We haven't taken a DT yet.

The same thing Malik Willis did apparently.

So who player LB for this team that's any good? Outside or inside? I know they'll run a lot of 2 LB sets, so they don't place a premium on the position, but unless Derrick Barnes or Julian Okwara take a step forward, we're going to be horrendous at this position and still won't be able to cover the middle of the field.

That's what I am wondering. We've got the Okwara brothers, Hutch, Charles Harris, and now Paschel. I don't know who is going to play where. This guy is only 6'2 with shorter arms too.

Our 2nd picks are always a miss, so tradition continues. I hope not.

I don't know a thing about this guy so I really have no pinion on him as a player. I wanted Dean or Willis here to be honest. Oh well, in Holmes I trust.

So we double down on DTs last year and double down on DEs this year.

You had to think Mike McDonald was lobbying hard for Ojabo. That seems like a Ravens-like pick.

Damn, I liked Wan'Dale Robinson quite a bit. This guy is a YAC monster. Good pick by the Giants.

Yes or no, do you take Willis?

Willis to the Vikings?

I don't know what I think anymore. I think Nakobe Dean is the guy I want to fall to us here. I think there is a reason all these teams are passing on Willis and that's because he doesn't go through progressions and can't read what the defense is throwing in front of him. So I guess when I see "good" franchises like Seattle passing on Willis, I have growing reservations.

Look, I don't know diddly about what makes a good QB, but I've seen seemingly far worse QBs over the last decade or so get drafted higher than Willis. Trevor Simian, Tim Tebow, Johnny Manziel, Jordan Love, EJ Manuel, Paxton Lynch. I guess NFL front offices really see Willis as a subpar/bad QB prospect.

WOW!!!!!! Did Malik Willis commit a Maurice Clarett?

What is the Vikings draft strategy, to make everyone in the NFC North better than them?

Please let this be any positions other than Receiver for Green Bay. Pleeeeeeeeeease!!!

We don't have the capital necessary for the licensing fee from the NFL and the league probably wouldn't license it anyways, but a buddy of mine and I have had the idea of opening up an SOL Lions Hall of Shame Museum for years. We mapped out the exhibits and how it would be laid out. You go through the decades, starting with the Bobby Layne trade and you get to see displays, video footage, and artifacts from the greatest SOL moments. In the giftshop you could by t-shirts, paperbags, and autographed photos from the likes of Eric Hipple, Scott Mitchell, Wayne Fontes, Marty Mornhinweg Germaine Crowell. I don't know how it would work once the novelty wore off, but I'm sure the opening season who do great ticket sales.

I was thinking about this too. I know the Motor City and Motown are the themes they will lean on but I think it would be fun to have some self deprecating humor and showcase just how pathetic this franchise has been. They have can have blown up banners of the best SOL moments like Monte Clark praying the kick will go in against the 49'ers, Sterling Sharpe left wide open in the end zone, Germaine Crowell cutting to stay in bounds, Marty taking the wind, Schwartz throwing the challenge flag, Calvin and the process of the catch, the Aaron Rodgers Hail Mary, the 10 second runoff against Atlanta, the batted ball against Seattle, the Silverdome not imploding properly. I think a little self deprecating humor would be fun. They can call it Not the Same Old Draft.

Agreed, we are contending for anything next year, so we don't need to risk another injury with Williams. I'd give the kid as much time as medically needed to fully recoup and heal. If it means he misses the first 4-5-8 games or more of the season, I am ok with that.

I don't think I would double down on Edge/DE or WR at this point. My new wishlist for tonight is 1. Malik Willis/QB 2. Nakobe Dean/LB 3. Jaquan Brisker/S 4. Chad Muma/LB 5. Leo Chanal/LB 6. Christian Harris/LB 7. Kenneth Walker III/RB 8. Breece Hall/RB

Will Williams even be ready for the first 6-8 games of the season? If not, Chark will have all the time in the world there to showcase himself.
