Our WRs numbers suck.

Seriously, 10, 11, 12, 13, 17, what the hell is that? Half the time I can't tell the who the fug has the ball until the announcer says it, and they get it wrong a lot of the time! The only one that sticks out is Funchess, can we please get the others to wear something in the 80s?

Not gonna lie, I hate this new school poo with those numbers, I'm used to 80s from way back when I was a little kid, that being said, our WRs all have different play styles and if you can't tell by watching, you haven't paid enough attention to them lol only one who I can't make out right away is Wright

Yet all he catches are 1st downs and touchdowns.

TD doesn’t count as 1st down in these stats I assume so that’s 27 out of 29 receptions being a 1st or TD. Actually pretty damn good... I mean that’s the role we use him in so why would anyone expect any different?

    • 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.
