Rufus T Firefly Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 I was so intrigued by what Detroit could do to set themselves up in this draft. And..... meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idaho fan Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Looking forward to watching our new 160 lb. DB tackle the likes of DK Metcalf or AJ brown. A supposedly great ball hawk - hopefully he doesn't have to tackle often Im worried about his health. I don't remember when I weighed 160 lbs.

Warhead36 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Darius Butler on Pat McAfee Show likes Forbes. Compares him to Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. Again I don't think he's a bad player. Just not great value taking him at 16. At around 23 or something it'd have been fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesMadisonSkins Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 I had a feeling Jack Campbell would go way earlier than the simulators had him. The tape was just too good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Momma There Goes That Man Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 I’d never draft anyone from Iowa. Most boring team in college football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 166 he HAS to put on some LBs and you have to wonder if his body can take that and still be the same guy, and stay healthy on top of that playing at an unfamiliar weight... Gamble. Big Gamble. considering the biggest problem this team has is ALWAYS injuries drafting a guy who even looks fragile is an extremely risky move to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 When we play Philly Forbes should just follow Davante Smith around the entire game. Skinniest WR-CB matchup ever. If he goes up against AJ Brown he's gonna get bodied into the dirt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 (edited) 8 minutes ago, KDawg said: I can’t believe we passed on Murphy and Gonzo for Forbes. But again, Forbes tape is some of the best for the corners. I don’t think he’s on Spoon’s level. Or Gonzo’s if healthy. But… It’ll be okay. I think. It's weird cognitive dissonance for me. Like I said on the draft thread, I get it with them digging Forbes. This secondary doesn't turn the ball over. And Forbes is the best ball hawk in this group. And he is good at playing off coverage-zone which this teams play a lot of. But while he's feisty as a run defender, he throws his whole body into those blocks which I gather he has to do because of his size. but in the NFL I think he will be steam rolled or he'd get hurt doing it. I wonder about him against physical WRs like Cedee Lamb and AJ Brown. I hate the value. But I like the player. If they traded down and got him, I'd dig it. But with some of the players on the board at the time, the value IMO wasn't good. But clearly they thought otherwise and hopefully they are right.

tomwvr Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Sorry but you draft the best player on your board if you cant trade and he prob was a TE. And this team has t learned that TE doninate the league … Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommanderInTheRye Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 (edited) I predict that 90% of the people ****ing and whining about Forbes (myself included) will be turned around and on the bandwagon cheering for him by the time minicamp comes around. Just like we did with Dotson and so many other picks we initially despised. lol We are a fickle lot and ultimately very predictable.

I guess 3 years from now if we have a DRC we won't care whether we took him at 16 or 23. Sometimes you gotta just trust the playmaking ability. In the end, Rivera and Co have drafted pretty well. Davis was raw/young and he's actually developed nicely ... Forbes has a lot of experience so he isn't Jamin Davis ... maybe he can adapt faster DAMNIT ... see here we go .. already talking myself into it haha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
