I've said all along that our line has to be stellar for Young to succeed. 

Hopefully, this is in the right direction.

everyone and their mom is playing too much madden. The one game bryce had time to do stuff and not throw it in the dirt constantly against green bay, the receivers got open. Can worry about playmakers later, the opportunity needs to arise to see what we got out there.

We dont need to have the money until Wednesday @ 4pm. Look for a Moton extension/restructure, creates the most cap space the easiest at a premium position with an elite player and leader, only downside is his age.

Yeah $6.5M there - and possibly another $4.5M if we cut Christensen which I hope we don't

so is morgan already backloading deals? how much did the von bell release free up? these were neck and neck on announcement. If he's legit, plug him in at left guard unless they're going to make him the center, but man, draft a center at 33, put this guy on the left, brady on the right, this can help a lot.

We just droppin Austin Corbett?

The salary cap is more of a suggestion.  This is our first mega deal from Brad Tillis.  We'll see how it works out for us.

Looking at the money going to guards, the cash was only going up.  Sometimes, you just have to pay the market rate.  Hopefully this is the kind of injection our OL needs to shore up.

This is awesome and exactly what I'd hope we'd do. We are putting Bryce in best situation we can this year so we know next Jan if he is our guy or not. If he is, we have some really good cap figures in 2025 to try and make a splash. Like what FO has done so far

Who??

probably somewhat similar to a Derrick Brown of the OG world.  He isn't a household name but has been playing like one of the better dudes in the league. 

62 guaranteed is a lot though.  But Carolina is only getting dawgs if they overpay at this stage.

So is he staying on the right side or moving to the left?  What are we doing with Corbett if this dude stays on the right side?

Hunt is better than Corbett has ever been in his career, much less the sorry version we seen of him last season.

    • 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.   
    • 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.
