3rd stringers don't win games. Our 2nd unit has competed (and honestly outplayed) both the Colts and Ravens 2nd unit.

Iron sharpens iron.

I'm happy with the 53 man roster, for the most part. We're carrying about 30 pieces of deadwood right now though.

The third string is meant to push the second string and the second string is meant to push the first string. Right now the first string is untroubled by those behind them. That's not how you build a consistently successful team - but we're working on it.

Says a lot more about Rhule’s weaknesses, then. I said earlier PJ’s biggest strength is Temple. That’s all he has. 

PJ Walker has actually won a NFL game.  So there’s that too. 

But as a said, more importantly, which QB would serve your team better as your D preps for Kyler Murray, Josh Allen,  Hurts, Hill, etc that we have on the schedule?   That’s how I look at it.  Who can help the team.   That’s  how one of those two could actually help

    • 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.
