buddha Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 linebacker and running back, two positions with not as much value in today's nfl. at least gibbs is fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motown Bombers Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Man, this isn't shaping up to be a great draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stanley70 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 I like Gibbs and Campbell. We may trade into the back of the first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddha Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 two huge reaches. i know holmes has 3 second round picks, but he doesnt have to start taking second round guys til tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sagnam Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Now we know why they picked up that extra 2nd rounder. As @Jason_R said earlier, they want to control the 2nd round. They are just doing it from the middle of the first. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motown Bombers Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 I'm kind of surprised they took a LB this high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.TaterSalad Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Is Gibbs that much better than someone like Charbonnett that they could have had in the second? There are a million good RBs in this draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nolan Smith is a hybrid DE/LB who you would think would be worth it there at 18. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sagnam Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 They've needed a LB for a long time. I just wish they had taken one in a draft with a good LB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motown Bombers Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 The Lions evaluation of LB does leave something to be desired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motown Bombers Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 I do like Gibbs. He may or may not been there at 18 but he's also not the type of player I would be afraid to lose out on either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motown Bombers Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Before the draft, people were saying it would be a reach to pick Witherspoon at 6 and now we're praising Seattle for picking him at 5? 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.TaterSalad Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 They likely had 12-13-14 guys with first round grades and they must have had Gibbs and Campbell as two of them. Kahng was saying that on the 97.1 draft stream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
