Thank you for the visual.

My God...Gettleman may be the smartest man alive.

It was painful watching Sherman pick on a 34 year old 5'9 185lb Smith last year.

I swear I hope he let's his bulldog mouth overrun his puppy dog ass. If he tries that stiff arm to the throat BS with KB he'll get his ass trucked over.

Seattle's secondary is so good because they are bigger than most DBs and they play incredibly physical. KB is exactly the type of WR who will give them problems. They could shove around Smith. Won't work with KB.

Let me add...

I'm not saying he's gonna shred them. They could very easily shut him down this year. But I've still got my money on one of them trying to get chippy with him and getting their punk ass laid the fug out. KB is a big son of a bitch who likes contact and he won't let anyone push him around. He's also 24, not 20-21, he'll push back.

We may not have an explosive offense but your defense is gonna be hurting after a day of tacking Benjamin, Stewart, Tolbert, & Newton.

    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
