The Official 2014 Lions Draft Thread

[themuzzer]

Seahawks just took the lead in the "best backfield in the NFL" category.

Marshawn Lynch, Robert Turbin and now Christine Michael are all "bell cow" type backs that can really pound the rock. All have the same punishing running style, too.

Very interesting to use a 2nd round pick on a 3rd string RB. Perhaps they get another good season out of Lynch and then trade him while he still has value?

It was a luxury pick for Seattle....When you don't have glaring needs you just start to build crazy depth....I want them to draft Denard Robinson in the 3rd another luxury pick....if it works great if it doesnt no loss......

 

[Old Lion]

The guy can play, but I am not sure he fits our offense. He will help though late in games and in short yardage when we need to pound the rock.

I liked Winters better because he is more versatile and could slide out to tackle. I am not comfortable with Hilliard or Fox.

Whelp, who do you guys like in the 4th now?

 

[Coach_Ed_LPW]

Kreton I agree with you totally. There are still guys I like available. Barrett Jones in the 4th.

 

[Old Lion]

John Simon in the 4th. We need an OLB badly.

 

[tpaulus_2]

Our new look o-line is really shaping up.

LT- Riley Reiff
LG- Rob Sims
C- Bill Nagy
RG- Larry Warford
RT- Jason Fox

I like it- young, athletic, better run blocking in the middle and far more athletic on the edges...

 

[lionstop1]

Bray, Mathieu or a Wr (Swope, Allen, Williams, Robinson)

 

[themuzzer]

For all those "build it through the trenches" types, You can't hate what the team is doing......Top picks.....Suh, Fairley, Ansah, Reiff, Worrford, (pettigrew) those are all #1 picks cept worrford but Guards still belong in the 2 and 3 rd round where we got worfford......Let's see if it adds more wins.

 

[jayfan]

Yes! Thank goodness.

 

[black_magic]

Denard Robinson could be a real possiblility. I would like to see Steadman Bailey

 

[themuzzer]

Whelp, who do you guys like in the 4th now?

Denard Robinson ofcourse, if he's still there.

 

[jayfan]

Is Sio Moore still around?

 

[Old Lion]

I would take Swope with the 5th

 

[Mebert]

I was crushed when we did not take warford in the second. This made my day

 

[black_magic]

i actualy feel good about this draft after the 1st round. Is this how you're suppose to feel!!!

 

[Rob]

WR Cobi Hamilton looks fast and smoove. This draft may lack the top end talent but it is deep as fuck.

Honey Badger out.

 

[LPinSLC]

really liking this Draft

 

[themuzzer]

really liking this Draft

Ditto, It must be the whole drafting for need thing that's working for me or is quite possible that the BPA was a need? Not sure but I ain't complaing thus far.

Give me Denard Robinson and put a cherry on top.

 

[Rob]

Lions got a prototypical DE. A speedy CB with decent size. And now a road-grader to start at RG.

 

[themuzzer]

One thing is for sure....If Schwartz gets the can, This teams cupboards arn't bare.....Tons of talent, just need to be coached, schemed and executed....This team has way to much talent to underachieve like they have.
