If Anderson and Carter are off the board and 3 QBS are off the board, who are you taking?
A big nasty...either o-line or d-line. Not a huge track record, but Holmes has used first pick on big nasties twice. Trenches first.

I like Witherspoon wayyyy more than gonzalez. Witherspoon is a great tackler, hits like a truck, has shut down corner skills and also plays the run well. He's not a wimpy guy that will ever get run over. He loves the game and he has a good connection already in the backfield.
Gonzalez is cool, but if spoon is there and we are going DB, I'll take Spoon first. He fits this team's mentality like a glove
I'm old school. Top picks go QB, LT or DE. If none are available trade.
If Detroit selects CB at 6 they are dumb dumb. Same old same old.
That's not true. You don't hate it.
If we take Witherspoon at #6 and he becomes Darrell Revis, would you hate it?
What?s wrong with having a opinion ? I just do not think cornerbacks should be drafted very High unless the are a can?t miss prospects. Plus and he does not grade out like last years ROY cornerback Sauce no matter what you guys try to sell me.
Have you watched big ten football ? Just a few decent ones.
Pay has nothing to do about it.WR?s and CB?s are getting paid just as much, if not more than LT?s and DE?s. Game has changed, you need help on the outside for both sides of football.
All I'm saying is why not take the player you think is going to be the best player/fit for your team?? Not taking a player based off what this franchise has done in the past is a dumb way to look at it.
Jeff Okudah didn't work out. So does that mean Witherspoon wont? Of course not.
You don't hate drafting a DB that high.....you hate that the Lions swing and miss on DB so often. If Okudah was Jalen Ramsey......nobody would say a damn thing.
If Ebron was Travis Kelce, would we all piss and moan about taking a TE #10 overall??? Nope.
Some rumors of teams moving up to take a QB.
Tennessee up with Arizona. DHop involved?.supposedly.
Good for us?..if top 4 are QB?s?..would Seattle dare take Jalen Carter OVER Will Anderson?
So we've said who we want what don't we want? Any TE guys in here?
