[jon_mx]

Eagles are scary.

 

[formerfourdigit]

Got 30:1 at DK for OL as the Lions first pick. Feeling good about it right now.

as Wright and Skoronski go next two picks ah well

 

[nysfl2]

Still have a shot at gonzo at 12

 

[jon_mx]

SKORONSKI or Gonzales???? Two good choices.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Nolan Smith baby LFG

could be Gonzalez but I don't think so

 

[Moonlight]

Darnell Wright good choice for Bears

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Either way better a 12 than a 6.

 

[jon_mx]

Lions rushed this pick...they wanted this bad.

 

[Mene]

I am stunned.... I don't get it

 

[crushedspirit]

Gave up on Swift

 

[Ilov80s]

Wtf

 

[Zeppelin]

Wow.

 

[Ilov80s]

Swift about to get traded I guess but why?

 

[jon_mx]

Lol.....Gibbs! I told you...perfect pairing with Montgomery...
Swift is gone.

 

[nysfl2]

 

[crushedspirit]

Swift about to get traded I guess but why?

Always hurt?

 

[Zeppelin]

As shocked as I am, I have to trust Holmes.

 

[Ilov80s]

Swift about to get traded I guess but why?

Always hurt?

I meant why take Gibbs at 12

 

[jon_mx]

Swift about to get traded I guess but why?

Speed. Lions are going for speed.

 

[TartanLion]

What the ****

Steaming drunk but what the ****

 

[Moonlight]

Swifts successor
They didn’t trust him
It was reported that numerous teams loved Gibbs

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Swift about to get traded I guess but why?

I meant why take Gibbs at 12

I like him but yeah that's too early.

 

[rockaction]

They could have waited until eighteen, it seems.

 

[Ilov80s]

This feels like a Matt Millen pick. Awful.

 

[Chaka]

Wow, but of a reach considering he would very likely have been there at 18. Clearly they don't like Gonzalez.

 

[Snotbubbles]

Would think Detroit would go defense heavy. Shocked is an understatement.

 

[TartanLion]

I can’t make that right in my head. Not at 12. Not even at the later pick

 

[Apple Juice]

Always hurt?

I meant why take Gibbs at 12

I'm not sure there's a reasonable answer to that question.

 

[nysfl2]

At least they got the extra pick?

 

[nysfl2]

I'd have preferred bijan at 6 and no extra pick

 

[Apple Juice]

At least they got the extra pick?

As long as they don't take another RB...

 

[Ilov80s]

Only RB taken higher in the last 5 years was Bijan.

 

[Chaka]

Did the honeymoon with Holmes just end?

 

[Ilov80s]

Also a sign this draft sucks.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Swift about to get traded I guess but why?

Fine

Could have taken Gibbs at 18
Could have taken Gibbs at 34

 

[Moonlight]

Lions had opportunity to draft Bijan at 6. May have liked Gibbs better

 

[Leroy Hoard]

I think they were both taken too high.

 

[Moonlight]

Fine

Definitely think Gibbs was going before 34 but I’m stunned too

 

[Ilov80s]

Swift about to get traded I guess but why?

Fine

Could have taken Gibbs at 18
Could have taken Gibbs at 34

Yeah but maybe not? Draft is just so bad teams don’t really want most of these guys? I am at a loss.

 

[TartanLion]

I’m just not really into Gibbs. If he had that speed and tape at 215 pounds well okay I like him a lot more but even then at pick 12. No thanks

 

[rockaction]

Also a sign this draft sucks.

I don't know what on earth you're talking about; 2023 draft is an all-time draft. Trade your late 2022 1st for any 2023 1st round pick.

 

[Ilov80s]

The “sharp” media’s love affair with Detroit and Holmes is certainly over

Not 34. Maybe 18. Tankathon had him moving up to 1.27 for BUF.

 

[Ilov80s]

Peter Schrager said Gibbs was the hottest name he was hearing this week.

 

[SoBeDad]

So let's start rethinking where Bijan Robinson could land...
Flip the script and fill in some of the missing pass attack with some short throws to a shiny new RB with the ability to break it at any moment.
Slot-WR. RB1, TE, WR 2...there's different ways to move the football and JW will be back after 6 weeks
I don't see JW being a huge factor now until perhaps Weeks 12-13 and beyond. Might take a little while for him to find his rhythm now.

I would start building a stronger backfield, don't think any WR in the Draft is going to be what you all need right now.
I do like the kid from Boston College but he's on the short side at 5-10.

That's taking 1 mistake and turning it into 2. If we are worried about the passing game, we should address it with a receiver.

Gibbs. Elite pass catching RB. Ability to make splash plays ... until Jameson returns. 2nd round, not first.

I was right and I was wrong.

The TV guys were taken aback by the pick.

Not 34. Maybe 18. Tankathon had him moving up to 1.27 for BUF.

So who did the Lions fear would take Gibbs before 18?

Can’t discount another team trading up I guess

 

[crushedspirit]

Maybe they thought someone was grabbing him before 18?

I know it looks weird but the guy is going to be a stud for you guys.

I think there was some talk that Philly liked him
