Trade DeWill to Lions for #2

Recommended Posts

draft one of the big DT's. we'll be better off in the long run because it would shore up our defensive middle for a decade.

we can't keep two starting RB's for to much longer. eventually we'll be forced to do something with one of them. get max value now for DeWill now rather than in two years or after an injury.

does anyone know how to change my username? now that my wishes have been granted by the front office, i'm ready to move on.

It would be tempting but we don't have the money to hand to a pick that high. We might be able to get someone good but we would have to pay him like a superstar and not only that but we would have to give up a real superstar to get it done.

Hmm, I know their are probably many threads about this already..but..I think it would be a hard decision..

Obviously we'd take Suh..whom is better of the two lineman.

J-Stew does seem like hew could carry the load..

But, I'd hate to see D-Will go.

:'[

I don't know what I'd do..

But I don't think this scenario would ever even happen.

So, I won't have to worry about it.

Geez, I'm rambling and rambling and rambling on here. xD

Someone wants to have a red rep meter.

why would that give me neg reps? it's a legit proposal. you may not agree with it but not agreeing with a suggestion shouldn't warrant neg reps.

what i suggeseted is a considerable option. i hate to see us wait too long and lose mega value with one of our RB's and if we could snag a stud DT rather than a 2nd or 3rd round one, i feel there would be more upside in suh's future here than trying to cling to two starting RB's.

a lot of people are saying we can't keep both backs, but why not? it's really up to deangelo and jonathan. they seem happy with the team now. if they want to go somewhere else to get paid more then that's their prerogative, but it's not certain that will happen. they really seem to be in to their roles at the moment.

"now", "at the moment"

sure, now and at the moment. what i am talking about is over the next 4-8 years (the time we'd greatly benefit from a stud DT)

Hey would any of you trade dwill and our second for Calvin Johnson? Hope I don't get neg repped for this suggestion.

no, i wouldn't, but don't worry, i won't neg rep you!

i like him, but believe DeWill is a better running back than johnson is a receiver. so the trade straight up is a move down for us so adding our 2nd.... yikes.

    • damn I wish somebody would sign him. This has been going on for weeks.    I think if the team wanted to sign him we probably would have heard something about interest on our part.    Or any TE. It looks like they have set that room. And we have taken guys two years running, a guy like this would be blocking them. We need to see if they have it or not. And we should see if Tremble is gonna ever do anything.      In general, with the TEs
    • Dude, there aren’t rose colored glasses big enough for you to call this “not a bad draft.” BC was not a good pick. He was taken with the 6th pick in round 3 and he’s been a backup OL. Tremble also wasn’t a win. Another 3rd rounder who’s easily replaced. Only reason either of them started games is because of injuries or a lack of a better starter. Chuba’s got heart but he’s had one solid year behind a solid run blocking unit. Other than that he’s underwhelmed and like we saw with Dowdle and Foreman, it’s not hard to find cheap pickups who perform as well. Horn has been a good starter but honestly that draft had so many solid starters we could have taken. With as many picks as we had, him and Chuba is absolutely a bad draft. We needed OL and BC and Brown was a terrible effort. You clearly didn’t watch the Senior Bowl if you thought Brown had a chance in the NFL. The huddle draft folks wanted Humphrey and Smith and instead we got crap and Mahomes was the winner.
