    Rakestraw profiles best as a Nickel...

    So whenever he's ready to see the field there...

    We'll also see more Safety time for Branch...

    I think that was gonna happen anyway once they drafted Arnold. I expect Robertson to play most of his snaps at nickel. 

  3. Having ASB locked up is a relief. I don't even care that he reset the market, because by this time next year he'll probably be the 4th or 5th on the list, and he's worth every penny he got. 

    I love that the Lions were aggressive wrt to extending Sewell now instead of waiting for next year. They likely saved themselves money while also giving them the opportunity to spread his bonus over more years. That's some savvy s**t. We now have two of our cornerstone players locked down through their prime years, and the cap will only continue to rise over the course of both of these deals.

  4. RB's may not have the same long-term value as other positions, but their developmental curve is smaller than most other positions. RBs can make an impact immediately.

    Remember that time Peredes was a Tiger but Avila was a dumbass? That was cool...

    I remember the vast majority of Tiger fans praising Avila for the Paredes for Meadows trade when it went down.

    Just randomly adding black into your jersey is dumb. If you are the Raiders or Steelers and black is apart of your team colors then obviously fine. But just because you can have a black uniform doesn't mean you should.

    That's how I feel, too, but we're in the minority. I will say that this black jersey is a thousand times better than the previous version. Overall, I'm happy with new unis, mainly because they ditched the stupid custom number font in favor of classic block numbers. They're clean and simple with no unnecessary outlines, although I wouldn't mind no outline at all.

    I wish they'd have silver pants with the road whites.      When I see the blue pants it makes me think of the Houston Oilers

    I wish they'd wear silver pants with each jersey, but overall I like the new unis. Are people really not seeing the difference from the old ones, because there's a lot different here. The block numbers was my main wish, and we got them back, so I'm happy. I didn't want a black alternate and I wanted a new word mark, but whatever, these look so much more professional than the last two versions, so I'm happy.
