Post them if you got them.

Rueben Foster or bust. If we are in position to draft him of course.

 

[Rollingthndr]

Adoree Jackson or Dalvin Cook please!

I wouldn't bitch if we drafted him but Bama linebackers are scary. They tend to produce many more busts than beasts. Ahem, Rolando McClain.

I really hope he isn't another McClain. He was filth for the Raiders.

I hope the Vikings or Bears draft him and he is another McClain.

Just one, but this clip needed to be used.

Don't need him. We already have a superstar, pro-bowl tight end. Wait......

Two birds.

We need a TE and we need large wr. If like one that can catch and break a tackle two three times a year. But this is the Lions, Id make due with just a TE.

I don't like how late I was getting an OLB, I think that sight WAY undervalues Jake Butt. Hunter Dimick is my homer pick, but I think he will be awesome.

Not sure I understand how they gave you a C- when none of your picks were below B.

2 of my top 3 picks are positions that they do not feel like are needs, so McCaffery and Butt took pretty large hits. So while they considered them good talent values, they viewed them as lesser picks

 

[RobBase]

For round 1, gimme CB Teez Tabor FL or CB Marcus Lattimore t0SU, or SS/LB Jabril Peppers MI or DE Taco Charlton MI. One of them will fall to us at 21.

They didn't in this completely arbitrary fake draft! Tabor went 20 and it broke my heart

Didn't that Jake Butt guy blow his knee out or something?

Trubisky climbs to third in PFF's 2017 Mock Draft | PFF

21.
Solomon Thomas, Edge, Stanford
Adding PFF’s Best Run Defender in college football should help to shore up a poor run defense that got gashed at times in 2016. Thomas played mostly on the interior for Stanford, even more impressive considering he’s only 270 pounds. That projects more to a 4-3 defensive end role on early downs where Thomas can add a strong run-stopping presence before kicking inside on passing downs to rush the passer where his 87.7 grade ranked fourth among interior defensive linemen.

This Ramcyk guy is the perfect RT to replace Reiff. Tackle is very thin this draft so if he is there we are grabbing him unless we fill the spot through FA. We can get a CB in round 2 as their are a ton of them this year. Hoping that Adoree whatshisface kid drops. We will definitely be getting a CB too. Sick of seeing WRs make catches on Lawson earhole. The guy just refuses to play the ball.

 

[Old Lion]

Right now I am looking at so far:

1 OT Ramczyk WIS
2 CB A Jackson USC
3 OLB Riley LSU
4 DT Qualls WAS
5 WR Rogers USC

We could go Cam Robinson too at OT if for some reason teams pass on him for Ranczyk.

Many other CBs in round 2 would be acceptable I just dont want the white guy. 4 will probably go round 1 though but a guy like Tankersly could slip.

If Reddick falls I would love to have him too but I dont see him making it to our 3rd pick.

Qualls would have to slim down. Jaron jones from ND might be worth taking a shot on too.

Would have liked Darboh but no way he falls far enough to when we pick a WR

We need a LB in the worst way. Hopefully they can address this in FA. Zach Brown, Donta Hightower, or draft Zach Cunningham. Kiper also mentioned Tim Williams from Alabama. 6'4 250. I wouldn't be upset if we signed a solid FA and drafted one of these guys.
