Considering Decker has 3 more years, after this one. So Sewel isn't going to LT any time soon. Strange pick.

Yup, just didn't make any sense...unless they were unhappy with Decker, and that obviously wasn't the issue.

I like Horn, and Sewell may turn out to be hugely overhyped, but man, I was drooling.

Yup.  

On the up side, it gave us something to complain about on the huddle. soooo....

That was a jail break.  Sewell's guy was one of three who met at the QB.  The guy who really got beat like a drum was the RG and the QB couldn't step up into the pocket...thus both edge rushers were able to get home as well.

He's raw as hell and didn't play last year.

They clearly thought they could remould him into a RT so they could have bookend OTs.

So one minute this fan base complains because we don’t value OTs enough but then make fun of the Lions for drafting one when it isn’t their top need. 

OTs are hard to find, OTs are expensive, OTs are important, I won’t fault a team for drafting a guy that a lot of people considered the one they drafted a generational talent at that position.

You can find a WR later, think about it, even if you are willing to spend big in free agency there isn’t a guarantee you can find a very good OT.  Most years there are several quality receivers on the market.

No doubt. And as soon as Sewell gets used to the NFL, Decker is top 10-15 type value in any trade.

You don’t even have to trade him.  Decker is under contract for 4 more years, Sewell is cheap for 4 years.  Once Deckers contract is up you pay Sewell and hope you have a new rookie to fill the other tackle spot.  
you keep both OT spots strong and you are only having to pay one big contract.  It is how every team should be doing it.

      Jack Roslovic: Only 2 other UFA, right-handed centers age 28 or under had more points (39) than him- Sam Bennett (51) and Pius Suter (46). There were 4 other centers age 33 and older who scored more: Gireaux (37), Marchand (37), Tavares (34), Granlund (33).  Unless the Canes go old, if they let Jack walk, they won't get a center who scored more.  Thoughts?

      It's important to differentiate criticism and hate. I can't speak for that individual you quoted. But most people who have been critical of the Tepper's have been so because both of them have made it a point to put themselves front and center and in the middle of team operations and we have been largely horrific more often than not as a result. If people are making derogatory remarks about her that should be met with an appropriate response but if people are being defensive just because she's being criticized all I can say is people should get used to it. Both her and David would have been getting absolutely skewered by the media and the fans if this were a big market franchise. The Lakers are finally being sold off after years and years of public criticism of Jeannie Buss and even though I'm the furthest you could go from being a Lakers fan just about anyone you could meet who is familiar with the NBA would say the criticism was certainly valid.
