2017 Lions Draft Thread

[Thruthefog]

Holy shit. I participated in fantasy baseball drafts in the 90s that had better resources. We certainly had more room.

 

[broncosmitty]

That's the same strategy that led to @broncosmitty and @Thruthefog ending up on the same Whirleyball team.

Gotta have guys on the same page.

Peppers could be my Whirleyball teammate any day. But we gotta watch how much water he drinks. It might be a problem.

 

[broncosmitty]

Or it could just be that he was dirty and tried to flush his system.

Did he test positive for Sur-Gel?

Cuz I don't always drink two liters of water with three packs of gelatin in em. But when I do, it's cuz I'm dirty.

 

[broncosmitty]

Nah. If they are going that route with the PED's. They aren't going to try and pass a test by drinking water. They'd take the masking agents to make sure it doesn't come up with any questions, IMO.

Dewd...


They're stoners.

Trust me.

We used Cert-O fruit pectin with 2 liters

We used Cert-O fruit pectin with 2 liters

Did it work?

 

[LPinSLC]

Only tried it once early on in probation. It worked like a charm. I always wondered if it wasn't just the 2 liters of fucking water though.

I passed with the Gel.

Diluted with the water. Which got me rehab.

Good times.

Trust me.

Pep might have been a little nervous and sparked a doob the weekend before but I wouldnt call him for a stoner by any means.

Not sure why they are not alerted sooner and given another testin a day or 2.

No doubt. The majority of the NFL is. The NFL's 'drug testing' is a joke. As long as you aren't put into their drug program. They only test you once a year and you know when it is happening.

All these college kids have to do is stay clean for a month. Pass the drug test at the combine and then they can basically do whatever they want.

I was giving him the benefit of the doubt.

''Tis better to be a stoner, than a moron.

 

[VulturesRule]

It's going to be a lot easier to explain to the home crowd how Peppers was still worth a first two rounds selection. Especially with the recent news of Conley now being accused of sexual assault. Most people would probably agree, the diluted drug test news pales in comparison.

13790

13790

Wow? Figured it be above 16K. I average 12-14K.

I love to trade just to see how many picks I can accumulate sometimes. Scores always suck though.

I think I got penalized hard for no 1st next year

2017 NFL Draft Profile: Jordan Willis

2nd round guy maybe?

 

[Old Lion]

 

[TrustMeIamRight]

They have an article on the free press site from 50 sports writers for the NFL predicting the Lions pick at 21, it seems like 5 guys are the most popular choice:

Hassan Reddick
Jarrad Davis
Takkarist McKinley
Marlon Humphrey
Taco Charlton

Others who received more than 1 vote:
Reuben Foster (2)
Charles Harris (3)
Derek Barnett (3)

If I had to personally rank who I'd like to see the Lions take with the 21st pick:
1. Reuben Foster
2. Hassan Reddick
3. Taco Charlton
4. Takkarist McKinley
5. Derek Barnett
6. Charles Harris
7. Jarrad Davis -- ONLY because of his injury history - if healthy, is put him 3rd
8. Marlon Humphrey
