No one really knows who will work out and who won't and I'm a bit overly giddy I suppose :yay: But I like the players we got. Sure beats Millen's need picks. And big stretch picks. But I'm excited..

Get Startedmitch, you're arguing with the guy who thinks 6th and 7th round guys are supposed to come in a play on a playoff team. save your key strokes.
when the hell did i ever say that. Ive always been one who said those picks are worthless. After rd 4 you can pack your bags and go home as far as im concerned. Take your own advice and save your keystrokes if all your gonna do is type a bunch of bs.
Tell that to Adrian Foster or Tom Brady for that matter. We might not have had a whole lot of luck late in drafts but to say after RD 4, picks are worthless, I just have to :lmao:
Do i have to go thru the list again? cause i will if i have to. I posted it last week. To say we dont have "luck" is an understatement. From round 5-7 you have a pothead, Hogue, and Young still on our roster since 2002. None of them are impact players. Like i said....worthless.

theres like 4 guys left on the Lions that Millen drafted, including all the top 10 picks we had for 8 yrs.
im assuming you meant NOT including since the list is :
Roy williams
Mike Williams
Ernie Sims
of the 3 drafts that Mayhew/Schwartz have had prior to this years 20 of 21 of the guys they've drafted are still in the NFL, weather on our roster or someone elses. enough said.
edit: this whole thread is basically you bashing Mayhew and Co. late round picks

thanks lions...i was trying to find that lol. Just to comment on that now that the draft is over. I like the Greenwood and Travis Lewis picks....so looking at it now i wouldnt trade the rest of our draft for Russel Wilson I do like him though. Tahir and the other New mexico CB we can trade for some doughnuts though lol.
