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

The silver lining there IMO is that it allows for a post June 1 cut and will push more reps to Greenwood and Green. You gave to find out what you really have there.

How in the heck does Mayhew NOT DRAFT SS/FS/OLB/ILB Telvin SMITH who is so dog gone versatile over Nevin Lawson.

did Bill Ford Jr. say "no more players who tested positive for anything gets drafted by us anymore ? "


really, really, POT ? come on probably half league hits it, they just don't get caught, Shame on you Telvin, not that Mayhew could see the light at the end of the tunnel or even Austin if he has full control to who he wants. A 4 position player who is 6' 3" 218 over Austin Power's Dr. Evil's (no offense to the real DR. Evil-er) Minnie me, Nevin Lawson

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.

Surprised no one has picked Marcus Roberson. Is he that undisciplined?

Think I might take a chance on "Tiny" at this point. Maybe he could play G as well.

better eyes, feet, ball skills, more physical than Purifoy, IMO.. I stated above they were both still sitting there. I'm not sure outside of both having 4.6+ 40 times at the combine

should still be able to become a swing tackle. I never thought he was the true LT over JuWuan James even tho he allegedly beat James out. He doesn't sink his hips enough but dang he has long arms and mirrors well but has that tendency to let speed rushers get into to his chest and double move inside or outside... I think he would be worth a 6th rd pick... and like you said maybe a swing inside G

Fucking Packers loading up at WR. They're pushing good players off their depth chart. Might be worth keeping an eye on this summer; Ross has worked out pretty nicely for us so far...

I know the following comes from McShay but he's the only draft analyst who composes actual grades along with rankings (4-5 guys may have a grade of 92 but ranked accordingly, position etc)

Here's the grades (hughest being 100 and nobody has ever received a 100) he gave for all current Lions Draftees

Player...........slot # picked at......overall rank....... overall grade
Eric Ebron.............#10....................#11...................92
Kyle VanNoy..........#40....................#54...................80
Travis Swanson......#76....................#175.................51
Nevin Lawson........#133...................#136.................60
Larry Webster........#136..................#161..................54
Caraun Reid...........#158..................#84....................70
