I am liking how they are spending resources on offense trying to help Bryce. 

Well it falls in line with what an offensive minded team and coach would do. Everyone should remember that this team is now spearheaded by their second offensive minded head coach and will always be that way until Tepper decides its not. This is what he wanted and if I remember correctly 99% of this board did as well.

I just hope Evero is getting closer to Canales money than Idzik money because he's basically 100% in control of the defensive side of the team it sounds like.

Pretty much. Capers is giving him support but it's really all up to Evero.

Well, one bad contract of another. Johnson has potential to be top 10 WR. but man he already started the on the field post Pittsburgh AB antics in Pittsburgh with a questionable QB. Idk this could get really spicy. Let's hope we can feed him and keep him happy, cause of so we likely are doing worlds better than last year in the passing game.

If I could start a thread, I would.  

I'm a Steeler fan and was looking to see what there is about Donte. And seen yinz say he was good but was over priced. 

But then I saw y'all thinking Johnson is good and thinking you would the trade...... I'm sorry to disappoint you, but Johnson is meh. Be prepared for him to catch and go backwards 5 years and then start moving up the field.

    • 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.
