Makuba the saftey from Texas. Seals the game with an INT. wow. He would be a great pick for us in the 2nd to 4th rounds

That was so fun. 

Skattebo absolutely skyrocketed his draft stock. He mightve been a 4-5th rounder before this game, but with that kind of virtuoso performance on a big stage, he might be a 2nd or 3rd rounder now with a good combine. Wow.

The only real questions about Skattebo are his speed and the mileage on his tires. Sure looked fast enough today but if he could run mid-4.5 or better in Indy it would alleviate a lot of concerns.

Texas won a game they absolutely should have won in a blowout and also definitely deserved to lose. I think either Oregon or Ohio State will beat them thoroughly 

The way they've been all year. They're the best team in the country when they're playing at their best but they look shockingly average for long stretches in a lot of games.

      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.
