Lions 2020 Draft Watch

[Mebert]

Vikings have had an awesome draft

So long as your dumb as fuck as Bobby Q.

He is the smartest guy I ever seen.
No other GM has the knowledge and foresight to select a CB with 4.7 speed in the second round.

Is this BQ’s best draft?

So far, imo.

and it's not even close - from an - on paper point of view.

some of us were dumbfounded from a couple of picks (not the he didn't get my guy b.s. but the questioning of value at pick slot)

I see starter with Okudah, Swift, Jackson and rotational piece for 1st year in Okwara and then becomes starter as Jack and down DE, stc. and now Stenberg as competition at OG if not takes role of RG 1st year - at worst next year -

Stenberg is pure nasty mauler but needs a lot of technique issues worked out. @RobBase has it right when he stated Stenberg will be the Ritchie Incognito v2.0 because that's exactly what he has been during CFB.

This is how it will go down next year.

1)Vikes (Cousins solid,great running game and great D)
2)Bears (with Foles and great D)
3)Pack (Still got Rodgers and best RB in the NFC)
4Leo's (2nd best QB in division and overall best O in the division, bottom 10 defense in the NFL)

I think it is always going to look great on paper when you are picking so high in the draft.
Essentially getting a blue chipper and another 1st round talent (from players sliding) in the top 2nd.
The money is made from the 3rd round on.
It will come down to if Okwara can make an impact right away, along with what we get out of these OL we just picked.

 

[Gulf of Brazil]

The Draft Network Logan Stenberg

PROS: Physical and nasty mauler that works to finish every block. Violent, well-paced and properly timed punch that can jolt pads and create opportunities to accelerate his feet and bury opponents. Has tremendous grip strength which helps him sustain. Assignment driven player that understands his role. Effective puller/trapper. Thick, burly frame to match his play style. Exploits leverage points on his opponents. No question about his ability to widen gaps and generate vertical push in the run game. Started every game over the last three seasons.

CONS: Only average foot speed, that combined with his tall pass sets creates some challenges in pass protection. Lateral mobility is disappointing and staying square to twitchy interior rushers requires him to work overtime. Has to play with better bend. Committed way too many penalties in 2019 (14). Has only ever played left guard.

BEST TRAIT - Power

WORST TRAIT - Bend

 

[RobBase]

The good thing regarding his play - is that he was voted SEC most hated player. He isn't afraid to play way beyond the whistle. Also, was considered the dirtiest player (worse than Suh's pro level talent). I might as well mention most flagged OL as a whole for most unsportsmanlike conduct.

I'll find the link and post it.

Wow. I love it!

In past drafts BQ has done his best work in the 3rd round, imo.

Glasgow was a great pick. - didn't want to spend money to re-sign him though
Golladay was a great pick - outperformed all of his naysayer's including many on this board
Walker another great pick - so much potential he hasn't even reached yet
Harris ?????????????????? - too early to tell but last year he in over his head. That's 2 B expected

 

[RobBase]

This is how it will go down next year.

1)Vikes (Cousins solid,great running game and great D)
2)Bears (with Foles and great D)
3)Pack (Still got Rodgers and best RB in the NFC)
4Leo's (2nd best QB in division and overall best O in the division, bottom 10 defense in the NFL)

Bears are trash and won’t win 4 games. They might get Lawrence next year.

 

[Gulf of Brazil]

Wow. I love it!

Stenberg should be the one who vies for the RG spot. He has the power to be a nasty run blocking OG but needs a lot of help in technique at his pass pro, whereas Jackson should take over the LG spot as his weakness is run blocking. jmo

Jackson also played Center at Rutgers.

 

[Gulf of Brazil]

I think he was drafted already.

He's still available.

plenty of GM have screwed that up too by picking and player, scheme, system, coaches not gelling.

 

[Gulf of Brazil]

So the Lions trade their #109 to the Raider's for their #121 and #172 (late 5th round)

So, We now have picks #166 (20th) and #172 (26th) in the 5th round

NFL Draft 2020 Best Remaining Players - ESPN Draftcast

damn

DPJ U of M WR

Curtis Weaver edge from Boise St

Anae

Strowbridge

all still available

 

[Gulf of Brazil]

Strowbridge fits our scheme.

Played a lot of 7-tech down to 1-tech for the Tar Heels. He was at the senior bowl. He's the poor man's version of Epenesa without the stats. He Played at 289 but got down to 265 for the Senior Bowl then back up to 275 at the combine.

anyone have a preference for these 5th round picks

 

[Gulf of Brazil]

cross off Strowbridge

anyone prefer Anae as a down DE ?

 

[RobBase]

He's still available.

Must have been some other islander dude.

 

[RobBase]

anyone have a preference for these 5th round picks

What about that Sparty LB who got suspended for the bowl game? Wasn’t he their best player.
