  1. You'd never draft or not draft by a category. You do factor risk into your grading of individuals, so pitchers and high schoolers have that in their grading. After factoring for risk, if that is the highest player on your board, take him. If you consistently miss, get better scouts.
  2. Not much to choose between Crews and Langford. Any of the top 5 are premium choices.
  3. It was a "groin" injury, he only missed 7 games, and seems to be playing very well without any issues.
  4. Langford is a solid defender, likely with the speed for center, he just hasn't played there much. Not drafting him for defense, though, premium bat, same with Crews. If you want defense, draft C!ark.
  5. I understand this thinking, but Detroit isn't that deep yet. Injuries are a reality and competition is the lifeblood of the NFL.
  6. He looks like someone you might take a 7th round flyer on, but Holmes likes him, really, really, likes him. Targeted him. Sees him at least as one of the top 70 players in the draft. It will be interesting to see how it plays out. Same with Sorsdal.
  7. It may be greedy, but I'd still like to see Williams at the y, and a big, long, fast x receiver acquired, someone exactly like Chark or Courtland Sutton.
  8. What they really need is a pocket collapsing defensive tackle and a big, fast x receiver.
  9. Nah, if he's good, he'll get opportunities. He just needs to focus on getting good.
  10. The fact that the next player they were hot for was an obscure, nearly 24 yo journeyman nose tackle speaks to that.
  11. They did address it, they traded three picks to move up and take one in the 3rd round. And i don't think they see Paschal as a dt, he's an end, like Cominsky who can shift inside on passing downs.
  12. Exactly, run stuffers need length, strength, balance and quick feet, that isn't going to show up on ras. However, this pick and Sorsdal will be interesting to follow regarding Holmes drafting acumen.
  13. He also mocked Josh Paschal to them last year, so maybe he's on to something.
  14. Someone claimed that from a source, or were they simply speculating?
  15. Why does everyone assume the lions wanted Witherspoon? Because he was mocked to them? There is no evidence they would have taken him at 6.
  16. The only thing that would cause me to lose trust would be if they wasted a draft pick on Hendon ******* Hooker.
  17. We may with him, because the Mets couldn’t make him a qualifying offer since he was with them less than a year.
  18. Because he’s already been through free agency once and received a qualifying offer.
  19. None of them are very good at blocking, yet, although Wright shows some flashes, but all three are better than Hockingson was.
  20. He's easily upgradable. If a TE is next on your board, for heavens sakes, draft him. You wouldn't let a James Mitchell stop you.
  21. Mayer will block, but I don't think he's a value at 18.
