Stopped clock did better lol. Calvin Johnson I guess you mean. Yeah boy, he was an all timer. 

I think Millen went 3 straight years with their top pick being WRs. Overall he was terrible. I looked up Johnson's tenure and drsaft spot (#2 overall right behind Jamarcus Russell lol), and his second year they were 0-16 and Millen was gone.

Millen was a really good player as I remember it. 

I just don't want to be here a year from now looking at a sorry ass neglected defense again. You don't feed it for 3 years this is what you get. We gave up 30 and thought the defense looked better lol. 

But again, you can restock a defense through free agency much easier than offensive skill positions.

Spend all our cap space on defense, take a true elite prospect who also happens to fit a position of need in T-Mac, and then use the rest of our picks on defense.

Again, every season there’s a smattering of great DL, LB, and DB options in free agency, a Top 10 WR never hits free agency, ever.  The only way you get one is through the draft or giving up 1st round picks in a trade for one.

If he’s there when we’re on the clock, he has to be the pick, he’s just that good.

After the Chiefs game a 6'5 X would really help in the Red zone. I would also love to add Slayton in FA

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
