not bad Holmes, not bad at all
Well fricken done Holmes. A+ our o line and run game is going to be nasty. He’s only 20 and is only going to get even better with time. No one thought he’d fall to 7. Definitely the right pick. Cant wait to see the rest of the draft! Lots of immediate starters fell to the second for us. Love this new lions staff. They will create a winner in Detroit in a couple of years. Mcdc is already my favorite coach of all time and we haven’t even played a game. Exciting time to be a lions fan.
Well said Ben, well said
We may not be ready now, but every single team we face has gotta know that if they wanna win they gotta get through that studded o-line 💪
@Im LegionZ sup exactly. We completed the o line which is huge. In two years we are going to be winning the division.
@Im LegionZ I’m a little more optomistic.. figure 8-9 wins depending on rest of draft..
LETS GGGGOOOOO, SEWELL IS THE GUY I WANTED!!! For round two somebody like JOK or Elijah Moore would be cool. Never been this excited for a draft in a while.🦁🦁🦁
Yes please!!!!! If we can make this happen…I’m fucking happy for the future
I’m thinkin Rondale Moore out of Purdue
Screw that.
Barmore would be a nice pick up.
He can fix the D-Line but only if they opt to go with some 4-3 kind of Defense.
@Low Tier Trash I would be fucking elated if we got barrimore in the second and switched to a 4-3
@BEN DIESEL 🤣👍
Detroit Vs Everybody
Swift is going off top 5 oline next year
Thank You Dan, Brad, Shelia and the city of Detroit. – Steve from Toronto
Thank you Steve
Thank you
Big love from the D to Toronto
Gang. Im from Toronto too. Go Lions!
Loved the pick. Solid O-Line is the way to go for a run game. Cowboys is a prime example.
Man swift and Williams are going to be nasty this year. With blockers we got.
The cowboys are perennially average and underachieving. I understand the philosophy tho
@Henri Hopgood I think he is referring to the O line Emmit had
@Henri Hopgood cowboys have bad amazing lines with emmitt and zeke when he first got in the league what are you talking about
So happy the Bengals are the Bengals and Penei fell to us! Dude has been practicing and training as both a LT and RT. Fricken elite athleticism and versatility for a kid that’s only 20. What a grand slam pick.
There is part of me that kinda feels bad for Joe
@Undead man Walking I was saying a few hail Marty’s for him after they drafted chase but was jumping up and down with joy screaming like a kid again because I knew what it hopefully meant for us
Leave it to the bungals to always bungle lol . GO LIONS
A+ Draft. Lions should have a top 5 O-line, super excited!
Not yet but we have build a great oline quietly with Sewell decker and ragnow
@Optic Stainless don’t forget about jonah
@Aiden Geddes yessir he’s not getting noticed much but very good player
@Aiden Geddes eh I guess he’s ok
I love his mindset. In your first year as GM with a bottom team in the league you don’t draft to fill holes. You play the long game and draft for the future. Awesome pick.
Especially a guy who could end up best in the league in a few years
Exactly, Draft corner stones not filler players
Bingo. In that scenerio, you always build from the inside out. More than any other position outside of QB, it is really difficult to obtain probowl level O-Line help in free agency, and more often than not teams end up overpaying. Love the pick. Sewell might be a lock number 2/3 pick had he played this year
Got both the Samoans on the right side. The Samoan Tsunami!!!! This run game is going to be insane!!
amazing pick for our future and to solidify our Line for protecting goff and opening up the run game. now we should focus on defense and getting a receiver next
I really love Brad and the staff, he does a good job giving info but not giving out too much info, entertaining and communicates well. Have a great feeling about where we are going!!!!
My thoughts exactly. He doesn’t overplay his hand but communicates to the media, and through them to us, very well. It’s refreshing!
Brad.. breathe brotha..You got time to build this team right. Whenever I see him wobble or be short on breathe you can tell how much he cares. Love the passion
me too
pro trick: you can watch movies at flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching lots of of movies lately.
@Cole Apollo Yea, been watching on flixzone for years myself 🙂
3 first rounders on that beast of an oline, possibly 3 pro bowlers soon.
What a solid pick, he doesnt have to be the best to still make an impact unlike an Okudah/QB pick. Even though he probably will be out best offensive lineman, eventually best in the league
I love this pick! There weren’t any defensive players rated as high. This is a historically deep WR class. Picking one in the first round is a luxury anyways. Plus, this guy’s ceiling is HOF. That’s ridiculous!
Lets call the new O-line the Motown Maulers .It’s time to bite some kneecaps
This dude is transparent! No runaround platitudes. These are questions that wouldn’t have been answered in the past. That goes a long way for the fan base and media. Thank you Brad!
The lions finally have an O line to be proud of… Mad respect
