  1. I hope they get their most pressing needs in FA or via trade, because A) you can better project what you're gonna get wrt performance, and B) I don't think Holmes considers immediate needs as much as he does ability/character in the draft.
  2. Glenn has never had anywhere close to the talent that Ben Johnson has had. He's basically got half an NFL starting D-line, 2/3rds an LB corps, a number 2, a solid slot and a bunch of stop-gaps at CB. Safety is about the only position where he has anything close to a complete group. Considering haw few horses he's had, I think AG has done a pretty good job. I'd like to see what he can do with a better stable.
  3. He will go for BPA, and Lions fans will freak out if the BPA does not align with immediate needs. I prefer that he fill immediate needs through FA and trades, tbh.
  4. Cam's problem is that he's a no. 2 CB who was tasked with covering everyone's no. 1 receiver. The Lions need to acquire a legit no. 1 CB, and Cam will be fine. Adding to the D-line so they can get pressure with four will help the entire secondary.
  5. Brandon Perna is a Broncos fan who loves him some Detroit Lions.
  6. Maybe, but considering his injury history, maybe not. He'll definitely get decent money, but I'm not so sure he's getting the huge deal that so many others assume he's gonna get.
  7. I hope they can add legit interior and edge D-linemen, because that alone will help the CBs. Sutton isn't a number 1, though, so that also needs to be addressed. I expect Glasgow to be retained, but they need another Glasgow-type signing to hold the line in the offensive trenches. I wonder if Jonah will get the big deal from some other team that everyone assumes he's gonna get considering his injury history.
  8. If it's a four year deal, I think it'll be closer to $180m, but we're in the same ballpark. Will be interesting to see how much guaranteed he gets.
  9. He's gonna get around $200m give or take depending on whether it's four or five years. And he's earned it.
  10. Awesome season somewhat tarnished by a final horrid half of football to close it out. Still the single greatest season of Lions football of my life, and I'm old. Looking to next season, I think they must upgrade the CBs, D-line -- interior and edge -- and find reliable O-line depth, in that order. I don't expect huge splash FA signings, but I suspect they'll be active looking for value and/or depth. I wouldn't rule out a trade, either. Holmes will draft BPA, which will frustrate Lions fans if the BPA isn't a position of immediate need. I'm excited to see how everything fleshes out, not to mention for their new unis.
  11. You want Campbell to kick those FGs, then you want Campbell fired. Going for it like that is in large part how the Lions got to this point. You either accept those calls or demand he be fired.
  12. I kinda wish the 49ers had just taken control from the start, because this is ****ing embarrassing.
  13. Game over. The Lions are melting under the pressure and the 9ers are stepping up. Was great year, though.
  14. That missed pick might be the spark that launches the 49ers to win this. Just a terrible play.
  15. This is going better than I imagined, and yet there's a s**t-load of time left, and I'm not at all confident.
