Yeah I think they made the correct call

You can’t say “well the call on the field is a TD so there’s nothing there to reverse it” when the only reason it was called a TD on field was so they could go look at it

They can and would look at it regardless of how it was called on the field.

I personally don't want a QB with our 1st. I want Hunter or Tmac and Canales gets his project QB later in the draft.

 

Saying that if we do go QB Sanders is the best I have seen. The thing that sells me is he's having success behind a terrible Oline. Just imagine if he got a decent Oline he would really show out.

I have no problem with skipping Qb IF you think there is blue chip defensive player available. Its gotta be somebody with a high ceiling for me or Travis Hunter because he is dual threat. I just wouldnt rule out QB because we still need a future guy who can sit behind Dalton for a while.

Or, y'know, they're following the actual rules of the sport and it's clearly not a catch. 

I don’t think it was a catch….but I don’t see how you can overturn it either given they called it a catch.  Not then the criteria required.

ACC made a business decision during review

I’m not drafting a guy to sit in the top 10.  Take a guy in the 2nd or 3rd for that.

    • 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.
