Lovi Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 We usually go RB in rd 3/4. Could see them going that way or DT cause they just can’t help themselves 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsGuy Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Lions take Hendon Hooker. He's finally off the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice_of_Reason Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Ok. Here’s the absolute best case scenario, and there is a real possibility it could happen: 1. The defense takes the step to elite. The have the DL. Now they have a lot of pieces in the secondary + Davis and a new MLB starter. Maybe not the 2000 Ravens good, but legitimate top 3-5 in the league. Can **** down just about any team. 2. At least one of the young TE’s develops into a serious threat. 3. Chris Paul turns out to be a stud. Everybody liked him last year in camp. He continues to progress and not only starts at LG but starts and plays well. 4. By adding Wylie to play RT, Cosmi stands out at RG. 5. Gates/Larsen/Rouiller lock down the center spot so we don’t have to play Nick Martin types. 6 EB is able to scheme it up the way they did in KC. Granted, no Mahomes. But KC’s offense is genius at getting guys running wide open. 7. Howell is good. Not just “ok.” But after sitting a year, he’s actually good. If those things all happen, this could be an outstanding team. The odds of all of these things happening? Worse than meeting Sydney Sweeney in an elevator and having her ask you to come to her hotel room for a little fun, better than meeting Sinbad in an elevator in Tysons Corner Mall shooting s movie in 1990-something. (The later happened to me. The former, not so much.) 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rolo Tomasie Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I don't understand why I'm the only one who sees RG3 when I look at Hooker. His athleticism is the same kind of "goofy" athleticism. I think he'll get crushed in the NFL like RG3 did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a vacuum, we should love Forbes exponentially. Quan, I’d agree, is not far off of Branch. so yes, I agree. In theory our secondary should be awesome. Not sure about better. But that wasn't my point. My point was i love the inter-mixing of these 2 players. I like the combination of these two players to this secondary. Quan has some upside to him, too. His RAS was just about identical to Forbes' RAS, actually 2 points higher. BOTH are really good athletes with upside. Both are ballers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do trust this FO ability to draft mid to late rounds. The draft is NOT over. I know Roullier was the previous regime. Just using him as an example What do you think the chances are of finding a really good Tackle at this point? Especially with this FO? Humor me.
