Yeah fa is going to be huge this year, this is the draft to remold the d line with, if kk can return to form and we add a key de in fa, we could bust this division wide open with one or two add linemen from this draft  

I'd love to sign a guy like Preston Smith and then still go DL/edge at #16. Then take another one with one of our other three picks in the first three rounds. Christmas out of FSU is a guy who's getting overlooked if we want to add a 3-4 NT type in the mid-late rounds. Don't let the size fool you. Dude's a tank.

I have seen that the Lions had met with Sweat 4 or 5 times in various places before the combine. I think this cemented it. I'd be happy with Sweat or Ferrell but I think just like Metcalf, the combine deeped the love.

The Lions have made it so obvious that they may be in danger of getting leapfrogged.

I also like Gaines from Washington as a later round. 3-4 NT.

Smith or Flowers would be a very nice pick up pre draft. Edge /dt 16, possibility of devin smith also if we decide to love on from Shaq and allocate the money somewhere else, depending on prospects available in the 2nd I’d consider another de even if we picked one in the 1st,if a top rated guy slid to us.

the 3-4 talk makes things even more interesting, but I’d have to see this staff make a serious commitment in the direction of implementing such change,before investing picks into it.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
