Who are our top 5 players right now?


Recommended Posts

I don’t see great players after that but there are some good ones like Samuel and  Moten.  I am not fooling myself thinking we are a contender but in the retool quite a few guys can step up and shine at a higher level than they have in the past.  
 

want to look at the positive in this instead of just focusing on not having superstars.

How the heck is Short on any of these lists? He missed all last year and was part of that D that was also awful the second half of 2018. The 2019 D didn’t come out of nowhere. 2018 D was losing a lot of games while Cam was struggling to throw it deep but the O was at least keeping us in games. If he’s our 3rd best player with 3 sacks in two years then that’s an issue. I’d release him in a heartbeat. He’s a waste of $13M in salary (new hit to cap).

Right now, DJ and CMC are untouchables and I laugh about trading them or not paying them (still on rookie deals with 5th year). They are our weapons right now. Only weapons.

Here’s my top 5 and this includes potential/who I don’t want to lose:

1. CMC

2. Moore

Bit of a chasm

3. Moton

4. Burns

5. Shaq

I would hope that pick 7 moves up this list very quickly. Heck, I hope pick 38 moves up this list very quickly. My dream is that pick #1 overall next year becomes our top player.

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
