2nd 3rd 4th 5th is fair for a guy that has barely played in two years.

Yeah, it sucks, but in todays NFL you dont need a superstar RB and you also shouldnt be giving them big contracts. The best you should do at the RB position is to rotate 2 guys and not breaking the bank for either. This one hurts, but Im glad we got some compensation for him while he still has value.

What does the trade value chart say? Do those picks equal the value of a late 1st rounder?

Also, any word on his contract? How much are we still paying?

Depends where those picks end up.  Top of each round? Yes.  Bottom of each? No.

Seems fine. Would rather of had a late 1st but those are picks we can really use.

Ok so now we let go one big guy so does anyone else get loud after all of this? I have no idea but I wouldn't be shocked if someone else asked out now that we have sent 2 guys away since firing the HC.

I think a lot of people just had unrealistic expectations of his trade value. This isn’t Madden.

Given recent injury history we made out fantastic . Not sure what some are smoking around here

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By strato · Posted

      I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.

      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.
