There's a lot of you, who owe Tepper an apology afterwards.

Rejoice because without him, you wouldn't have a franchise quarterback.

He never budge, that is all.

Devil in the details, remember, not only is Watson coming to Carolina but it was a good deal.

I bet 85% of this board would have made the same deal, the other 15% didn't want Watson anyway.

Will you go away forever once this doesn’t happen? Conversely I will cash app you 50 US Dollars if what you’re saying is actually true.

I mentioned that last night also. Tepper may be a giant unbearable dweeb but he is filthy rich, and has the ego to match. He wants to win and if he keeps taking big swings like stafford/DW, he’s bound to get a hit eventually.

I just hope Tepper does not green light going after another mediocre to bad QB once Watson nails the coffin shut. My hunch is Rhule will swing again for one to try and save his job. Teddy disaster, Darnold even worse disaster, round 3....heaven help us. 

based on the way we are signing players, i dont think the next QB will be a miss. someone else is in charge of talent evaluation and acquisition

I’m assuming we’re next on the plank…

That’s hilarious they didn’t get Watson AND they torched the bridge with their current QB. Good times. At least I can revel in the pain of other organizations and fan bases.

yeah, them getting involved was a rough move by the owner of the Browns. You could argue this has a bigger impact on them than it does for us. They just showed the league how they treat their QBs.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      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.
