We gonna mess around and end up with the #8 pick aren't we?

 

Bad wins are a real. This was a bad win. Playing with fire now would could drop on the draft board.

 

Nevermind missing out on the QBs. But missing out on Hunter/Tmac would be the epic fail. Those are the only 2 non QBs with game changing talent. 

 

 

I'm all for winning, but you have to look at the bigger picture. Is a few extra wins worth missing out on those players in the draft?

Developing a winning culture is crucial. Your players and coaches need to build confidence and an identity. We’ve shown that having the first overalpick doesn’t guarantee anything.

Neither does the #8 pick.

 

This is a 4 player draft imo. After those 4 there is a major dropoff in talent.

 

Who we taking at #8?

These fools didn't even show up against the Chicago Bears less than a month ago let's pump the brakes on talk of wins for the culture.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      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.
