Its a scoring league but the second pick? maybe
This first round was absolutely miserable
Lions had better options and wasted picks. Drafting a player at 12 and another at 18 that they could have got on day 2. Should have taken Carter at 6. Id been less upset with Gibbs at 18 ( he would have been there ) id rather have seen a top TE then a RB when we already signed Montgomery. Wouldnt be suprised if they draft a QB at 34 now. Not even going to watch the rest of the draft. They blew it.
So we take 2nd round players in the 1st now? Hope these picks are extra gritty. Wtf
What a terrible 12th pick. Gonzalez will be a shut down corner for 10 years. Even if this guy is the next Barry Sanders, you could get him at 18, or in the SECOND FRICKIN' ROUND!!!! HE'S NOT ON ANYBODY'S BOARD!!! Every year there's a group of idiots who think they are smarter than everyone else. Just when you thought the organization had gotten it together this draft happens.
I’m just laughing so much at so many people complaining about the draft picks. None of these guys has played a down in the NFL. We’ll see when the year is over how good the picks were. One thing is for sure…they got the guys they wanted, and Holmes’ track record says these guys are gonna be good. Just because mocks had these guys going lower doesn’t mean other GMs thought the same way. We saw enough different picks in the draft to prove that.
This was bad
Painful
When Mike said pause i died
Brad Holmes knows what he’s doing. He is ahead of the game and will be proven right as usual.
Jack Campbell was definitely going in the first round. That guy's an absolute stud that is an upgrade from AA
100% plug and Play starter no arguing that. And it's still a position of need because we didn't have anybody in the middle anyways He's better than Rodriguez.
6'5 250 lb and has the sideline the sideline of Bill would need to tackle anybody and anyone.
I will say this The Gibbs selection was a little bit early but there had to have been some kind of thought that somebody was going to snag him before 18.
Bad picks what a horrible draft no question
love the picks, don't care where Kiper or random youtubers had them mocked. Got a ridiculously explosive RB with great receiving skills, and a LB that will knock you the F out! and came out of it with pick 34 also!
Solid picks. I trust brad and his regime more than I truat any of your mock drafts. Half of the people commenting dont know football. Brad and his regima have picked well to date and Im not going to judge them because of what they wanted to get ?!?!?!?yall are ignorant fans, ignorant. Got take your mock drafts and every other mock draft you like that youve been copying ir getting ideas from someone or somewhere else and shove it.
Foh celebrating the Campbell pick AT NUMBER 18…😂 😂 😂 😂. In all seriousness tho, not gonna lie, gut reaction to both picks was disappointment, but I still trust Brad till he gives me reason not to.
they totally shit the bed!!!! incompetent selections in drafting an RB and LB at those positions. You passed on the 2nd and 3rd best defensive players in the draft when the defense was your biggest need. You then trade down which has MASSIVELY disappointing to see. Instead of taking a Van Ness or Nolan Smith… you take a friggin RB!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Laughing at the SOL picks again. Unbelievable
Had a good time guys. Loved the trade down. Surprised by the Gibbs pick but absolutely nailed it with the Cambell pick. LETS GO LIONS!!! #FGB
