I know that when I was on the job market, I had crossed Detroit off the list of places I'd be willing to work.

Low-key upset Hooker wasn't drafted by Washington even though I hope Howell balls out.

I didn’t complain at all last year.  I called all the “reach” folks dummies and not to worship at the alter of Mel Kiper’s hair spray.

 

This year… I have philosophical differences with our approach, which I deem to be doggy doo doo. 

Dude, you are a passing game slut. It's all you care about.

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.)

sydney Sweeney. Wouldn’t that be amazing. I’d love that. Wife… not so much.

He's got a chance to be really good.

Lol.

 

Yeah I said that last night.

 

If I was going to the city of Detroit, I wouldn't be excited either.

I can’t post the link because it’s madly racially insensitive at this point, but there’s a sequence in the 1970’s comedy “Kentucky Fried Movie” where a baddie is torturing guys, and for the last one he says “Send him to Detroit!” And the guy flips out asking for “anything but that.”  
 

It’s still funny, but parts have not aged well. 

[kingdaddy]

I'm thinking that RR and EB really like our young TE's, Rogers and Cole Turner. They both need to step up in year 2. I love LT but I'd cut him for cap space. Maybe this explains why we haven't gone TE thus far?

I like the Lions draft. 

If we had 5 picks in the first 68 ours would look pretty good too.

That movie is so good. I assume you're talking about thrill seaker.

5 d-backs would be off the board for sure.

i am working on my favorite late 4th round players right now -- that they could take in the late third. 

Kelee Ringo

Darius Rush

Jordan Battle

Jason Taylor II

Zach Pickens (did I miss him getting picked?)

Double A

Siaki Ika

DeWayne McBride

Charlie Jones

Dawand Jones

Jaelyn Duncan

Zion Nelson

Ricky Stromberg

 

Probably all too highly rated on our board to take in the third. I’d expect Kyu Blu Kelly in the third for us. I have him roughly as a 6th or 7th CB.

What do you think the chances are of finding a really good Tackle at this point? Especially with this FO?

 

Humor me.

Not great. But you never know. 

[clskinsfan]

Kendre Miller just went to New Orleans. Underrated player IMO. But Surprised he is the 4th RB off the board.

I haven’t seen it in YEARS and don’t remember the names.

 

The whole movie is so wrong.  But hysterical.

[Renegade7]

Third round is typically money round for us when it comes to TEs this century...hope there's someone there that isn't too much of a reach...

Actually had them crossed off but typed them anyways. We should draft them again. See what happens.

I lived in Lansing for about 3 months and been to Detroit as well and, good thing didn't have much to pack, slapped a shipping label on the boxes and threw whatever I could in the car and drove back to MD as fast as I could and didn't even look back lol

Didn't they take a part of downtown Detroit and turn it into a zombie apocalypse theme park?

Yeah, you couldn't make a movie like that today.

 

But you probably couldn't make "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" today either.
