Get StartedNot the Lions fault this is not a draft with known stud prospects. Holmes and this staff can make it work. Nobody should be flamed at pick 2. Have some patience
People so desperate to see Goff's replacement they're willing to take guys that wouldn't be 1st rounders in some drafts.
The majority of this years top prospects wouldn?t be top prospects in most drafts?
Goff would be the top prospect in this draft
Steelers are going to be a bit more desperate for a QB now, but I do not think they have the draft capital to move up to #2 nor do I think the Lions would desire a trade that far down. The Steelers would need to include a starting defensive player to make that worthwhile for the Lions, and while their D is pretty stacked I doubt they do that.
They would also have to believe Malik will answer their prayers at QB as opposed to tanking next year for someone better at QB in 2023.
Mike Tomlin and the Pittsburgh organization doesn?t tank. They find ways to compete w what they have. Tanking is for loosing organizations like ourself.
My man Jordan Reid?s latest mock has us taking Willis #2 and Dean #32. That?s a dream scenario having Dean falls to us.

Looks like Lions haven't talked to the Liberty coach about Willis. That's interesting. They did coach him at the Senior Bowl
I hope that's a good sign we aren't serious about drafting him.
Every option at #2 is a question mark or feels not worthy of that pick. Might as well get the strong arm, lighting fast, playmaking QB.
KT not a questionmark really. Way better prospect than Willis as boom or bust developmental QB

Strong arm. Yes.
Lightning fast. Eh. 4.51 isn't exactly lightning fast. Fast for a QB. Sure.
Playmaking? No.
Strong arm is probably about as important for quarterbacks as jersey number or type of mouthpiece. That doesn't mean shit.
