2025 Detroit Lions: 4-1 Lions win battle of the big cats. (28 Viewers)

[Leroy Hoard]

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 hope you are right.

 

[Ilov80s]

Holmes loved it! So pumped

 

[Ilov80s]

best pass catching RB go come out in 5 years

 

[Ilov80s]

@jon_mx I have to concede you were in line with Holmes on Gibbs as a weapon

 

[Leroy Hoard]

I've read some really good stuff on him, just not expecting him that early.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Gonzo to Pats.

 

[jon_mx]

Gonzo is gone. Maybe Kamcey here.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Nolan Smith baby LFG

let's try this again

 

[msudaisy26]

Smith. Just cancel the season if it is a tight end.

 

[jon_mx]

@jon_mx I have to concede you were in line with Holmes on Gibbs as a weapon

Gibbs will be really fun to watch. That OL opens up big holes and Gibbs is just going to explode for huge gains. He will be a highlight reel, while Montgomery will carry most of the load.

 

[Moonlight]

Lions trying to trade back again?

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Jack Campbell

 

[rockaction]

God, I'm just sorry.

Signed,

Jets fan.

They could've traded to from 1.18

Do you think the Jameson incident had anything to do with this?

 

[Ilov80s]

There’s Anzalone’s replacement.

 

[jon_mx]

Jack Cambell....OK solid pick for a big need.

 

[Ilov80s]

LB and RB…interesting value allocation. Clearly Lions saw this draft much differently than draftniks.

Might have

 

[nysfl2]

Good fit, but seems early for campbell

 

[Moonlight]

At least it’s not a TE and it’s a defensive player A Dan Campbell guy

 

[Ilov80s]

God, I'm just sorry.

Signed,

Jets fan.

Puzzling. I think a sign that many GMs think this draft is extremely weak.

 

[msudaisy26]

There’s Anzalone’s replacement.

You mean the guy they just resigned? Seems like a reach.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

At least it’s not a TE

We always got that.

 

[Moonlight]

Good fit, but seems early for campbell

Does seem early Holmes has always been anxious to get his guys

 

[jon_mx]

We got two players who are going to contribute day 1 and will make our team better. It was a good day.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

I really do like both players but at 12 and 18?

 

[msudaisy26]

This feels like a Mayhew draft, look at us we are the smartest guys in the room.

 

[Ilov80s]

If there is another guy Lions are interested in, would they trade back up into 1st?

 

[Ilov80s]

I really do like both players but at 12 and 18?

Same. If these were 2nd round picks, I would be over the moon.

 

[rockaction]

I think a sign that many GMs think this draft is extremely weak.

This draft sucks but don't tell the board that. They were all invested in 2023 firsts and seconds.

I'm regretting my trade for the 2.07 and 2.12 now. There hasn't been one receiver chosen.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

I wonder what they get for Swift.

 

[jon_mx]

I really do like both players but at 12 and 18?

Sometimes getting the guy who fits the culture raises their value. Brad and Dan may have reached, but got two guys they wanted.

 

[msudaisy26]

I wonder what they get for Swift.

Probably a 5th and then they will draft a guy that has an undrafted grade.

It’s more to do with Swift

 

[jon_mx]

A 4th.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

They have 34 48 55. Definitely have the ammo.

Gibbs is another receiver, could see some 2 back sets.

 

[Moonlight]

Good fit, but seems early for campbell

I thought they might be trying to trade back from 18 because it took a while to get that pick in. Sense was that Campbell was going later than 18 but draft was slim at LB

Oh I meant NFL wise but yeah also dynasty

 

[Ilov80s]

This draft feels like they really are prioritizing win in 2023

 

[Chaka]

I wonder what they get for Swift.

Cap relief?

 

[Moonlight]

I’ll be back in a bit … going to talk Bobby Layne off the ledge.

Yeah, that's what we Raiders fans used to say under Gruden/Mayock.

Get a good kicker early in the second and you killed it.

I think Holmes/DC have already proven much more than Gruden and Mayock

 

[Ilov80s]

You think Detroit views Campbell as a Micah role? He's big enough to play some edge and dear god is he athletic enough.

Sums up the night

Watched tonight with a Jets fan. Pats fan, and Eagles fan

Jets & Lions make weird second round picks

Pats fall *** backwards into being gifted Gonzalez

Howie crushes it bc he always does

what an absurd rotation they keep maintaining in that Philly DL

Lions picks feel circa 1995

Exciting playmsker & a thumper out of the Big Ten

It’s like we’re back to being unserious about roster construction - let’s sell tickets & jerseys

 

[Ilov80s]

That's what we used to say about Gruden/Mayock and Al Davis.

I thought you were just telling me a week ago to lighten up and enjoy being a Lions fan during this renaissance period?

 

[JoeKappBudGrant]

They may be able to draft Porter, Avila and Benton tomorrow to fill some holes.
