2014 Lions' Board complete draft picks

[tpaulus_2]

nope, I do like Lawson, but I absolutely would have preferred Telvin Smith. I can disagree with a pick and move on though

Yep.

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

And you fuck right off Mebitch and put me on ignore. Free country, I 'll say what I want.

CALM DOWN MINNESOTA FAN!!!

 

[Gulf of Brazil]

Nice pick. I asked for Webster or Telvin Got Webster
Then Telvin or Reid Got Reid

I am happy with today except for that CB pick.

BUTTTTTT, ya gotta admit, "the spin-doctor, Mayhew" dropped it, missing T. Smith versus Lawson...

but Damn IF IF IF #133 T. Smith.... #136 L. Webster..... #158 C. Reid

That's a major haul 4 even though some may say, development guys... A 4-star Brigadier General's haul being 4th rd comp picks and 5th rd, IMO

 

[Gulf of Brazil]

This looks like a solid pick. Nice little replacement for Fairley

Strongly compares to Sammie Lee Hill

[Old Lion]

I think we tried to fill all the areas we had holes. I think they can pretty much pick anyone now.


Kicker will be last

[Gulf of Brazil]

Cincy McCarron fits.. similar to Dalton.. no need to change scheme

 

[gandydancer]

Aaron Murray good pick by Andy Reid. Fits the West Coast style with his smaller stature. Now I have to give up on Tyler Bray and Andy Reid making him a QB.

I am OK with letting T Smith go by. We have 2 guys like him already in Carey and Palmer.

Maybe PK in 7th. JMO, I think they go UDFA 4 PK but it wouldn't be a wasted pick in the 7th rd (Dallas trade) I got it now GandyDancer.. Detroit 7th round pick from Jerruh Jones

 

[Old Lion]

Damn, run on QBs now.

Agreed- It's almost as if the new coaching staff said "Fill as many holes as you can and let us evaluate who we have before we identify needs for next year" or something to that effect...

The dope smoking may have had a impact with all the issues of present roster.

 

[Mebert]

Lawson is better than this board seems to think, he played very well all year. While his is short his measurables are almost completely identical to the Tyrann Mathieu. I don't think he is as good as that, but I think everyone is getting to caught up in taller corners, shorter corners can succeed too.

 

[tpaulus_2]

Two picks left.

Better both come off my list, lol. So far the Swanson and Lawson picks weren't on my list, not pleased about that. Oh well, though.

Like the overall picks so far, all will fill a role.

 

[Mebert]

Although Marquise Lee did destroy him this year

Slot CBs don't need to be tall- they do need to be stocky, regardless of height, though, because they're asked to mix it up against the run a lot more than outside CB. I like the guy for a nickel back, but I wonder if this means Houston is the odd-man-out for the year with that toe?

 

[Gulf of Brazil]

U know what's funny and yet strange, Kiper and McShay both had the Florida CB's Purifoy Roberson in their Top 25/32 respectively back in January... they are both still there.....waiting...waiting... both had a yr of eligibility left, if I'm not mistaken

I would not be surprised if Houston has Surgery and is out for the season.
