Trade DeWill to Lions for #2


PuntJake

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.

    • Yep he made the comment " I dont know what they were doing out there at that point" in the press conference. Let's be real they all got paid but they also know his system suppresses there offensive potential.
    • Yup the casuals on Facebook ive gotten 85 laughing or angry emojis so far for pointing it out.  The amount of them throwing a fit because the canes were booed is insane  
    • Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen.
