Theres no fuckin way the Lions, doing what they have done, will invest so much (money and draft) for Lamarr Jackson. He's not a fit in their plan.

I don't think he is worth what he would cost. His appeal is his running which we've seen reduce someones longevity in the league. Coupled that he's his own agent and wants a Deshaun Watson type deal? Hard pass.

Its not going to happen, they are building this team right from the trenches out. Throwing some cap heavy QB into the mix when we currently have a decent game manager who knows our system and has good synergy with our OC makes zero sense. He's been hurt way too often, two 1st rounders and a 200 mil+ contract with most of it guaranteed? It just doesn't make sense for how they've been building this team.

ZombieCrew posted:I understand what you're saying, but they are building the team for an eventual high caliber qb. If you're good in the trenches then any good qb should excel. Maybe goff gets better next year, but i doubt it. I think he looks good because of a good rb and wr squad to keep the game balanced. Maybe the money aint right, but Lamar would look pretty good on the lions. Only so much might be all they need, but I know what you're saying. If they decide they want to go the route of KC, Cin, Buffalo etc I get it. Its just.they could also go the route of San Fran and other teams from the past that competed for a Superbowl with a strong defense and a competent offense. If they go the way you're saying I just don't think Lamar is that guy. I'm definitely biased against running QBs though.

He's got a demand list of friends he wants them to get, my god I'm so sick of hearing about him. He's going to see if he can get the 9 imprisoned members of the Asian Dawn movement next.

SKULL.GIF posted:I think it's still worth it for the Lions to grab Witherspoon or Gonzalez. I mean if Gonzalez fell to them at 18 I'm not unhappy but from how I want it to play out is Tyree at 6 and either a OL at 18, or the best LB unless its not a good value pick at 18. I'm so not used to a competent Lions front office and its freaking me the gently caress out.

I dunno they may be dastardly if they read the market wrong and end up causing said client to leave money on the table. Its a tough call.

They have to make sure they're ready contract wise for Aaron's eventual move from the Jets. This is the way.

Danny LaFever posted:I don't think it necessarily means they take a corner at 6. And I figured they'd take a corner for sure in the draft regardless of this trade. This, maybe 18 instead of an offensive luxury pick. Or they could pull a jamo and move up a few spots for Porter Jr

Sataere posted:There are rumors that Tyree gonna fall due to physicals. If he's healthy, I'll take him at 3 tech on the Bears. Something is up with his foot and it's scaring a lot of people. If it's serious and it's a plant/push-off limiting injury he'll fall. I really don't want a DB at 6 man. Lets hope there's enough QB fuckery that someone good falls to us.

Dexo posted:a 3-4 DE and a 3 tech are not the same thing. But they both have 3 in them! (I've always wanted to learn what the difference is, I confess I don't know the 'techniques') I gotta say when Wilson wasn't scaring people I was okay with the Lions passing on Carter, now if he's there loving take him. I don't think he will be there to be honest though. The rumors of tenessee trading to 3 gives us some hope but... we'll see. It all depends on what Houston does.

Dude the Lions could've had Gonzalez and Cancey, or Van Ness or Nolan Smith. Htf can Holmes lose my trust so loving quickly. He's pounding the table for someone who might've been picked in the late 20s and you got him at 12. gently caress right off. Then Campbell who we could've got with the pick we got for trading down?! Why were we happy for the Rams sucking?

Of course we'll never know and I understand what you guys are saying I only chose Cancey so I didn't have to list everyone. I just wanted a DL early. Dexo I get it. None of us are GMs otherwise we'd be in the room, but that argument may not hold up with previous Lions regimes. I felt smarter than those guys. Holmes has been making picks that 90% line up with what I'd do (I would've traded up for Davis last year, not Williams) so he has a measure of trust from me, but don't act like armchair GM isn't a staple of being a football fan.
