So, with all the events that have occurred over the last few weeks, the Lions are set up were they can make some dramatic improvements to the team and take the next step to becoming a winner. They have failed at certain aspects but here's a chance to redeem themselves. Can and will they put together a nice group of coaches here? These guys must be able to bring innovative schemes and understand exactly what the team needs as most of us fans do.
None of these coaches can be conservative assholes that dial it back for no reason at all. Offensively, continue to pass and be agressive. Defensively, whether 3-4 or 4-3, bring the pain because the d-line is set and there is ways to protect the secondary through play calling and scheme. Mayhew, Xanders, please continue with what you did last season. Since this team is said to be the best job opening, theres no excuses to not land good coaches,
There will be a little money available after they move things around, so theres no excuses not to grab at least a couple decent guys or one really good one. I'd expect a move for a C, Wr, or Cb since they are the 3 areas of greatest need. No excuses.
At #10 the Lions will have an oppurtunity to grab a Wr or Cb no matter how you slice it, so theres no excuses why the team should go into the next season without them. By the time the draft approaches, there may be at least 3 Wrs worthy of top 15 consideration and all of them could push the Lions defense over the top. These guys are Watkins, Evans and Benjamin. The Lions might even have the first crack at the best Cb available from Gilbert, Olomu and Dennard. To add, the Lions might even be looking at a sitution that they can trade down a few slots and still land one of these guys.
Honestly, it probabaly was best for this team to lose because now they are forced to make some critical moves to get this team to the next level. Thst said, I will be very critical of how this team handles this situation. Will they finally do what it takes? The situation has set itself up nicely if you ask me.
No excuses.
