What exactly is Hurney thinking i would love to know. Why hasent he extended Jake yet? This move would free up some cap space supposidly...Even though im opposed to it completely i guess we should move Lucas already and get some more room..i know we have had plenty of restructurings but someone else has to be extended or restructured to free up some space, i just dont get why the organization is shuffling its feet...

They must be working real hard trying to trade Peppers and Lucas if they cant even free up some space for FA's and the draft..

agreed....they cant honestly think we would improve from last year without signing anybody new, losing 2 o-linemen to FA, cutting an o-linemen, keeping a DE that doesnt want to be here, pissing off a CB by attempting to trade him to the worst team in history, an starting off the draft with a low 2nd round pick

the only thing that makes sense is trading peppers sooner then later

he thinks the 12-4 team that showed up last season will show up this season, pep or not, no matter what our schedule is. Thus, he'll wait til the last second to bring in some scrubs to be backups and will build through the draft.

This will blow up in his face this year, imho.

Once we trade Peppers to the Skins for 2 #1s, then parlay one of those #1s to acquire Cutler from the Broncos for the Skins 2010 #1, sign Warner from the Cardinals with the Pep cap dollar savings, then bring Favre back from retirement, draft Matt Sanchez with this years #1, we'll release Jake and have the most hellacious battle for the starting QB position evah.

You heard it here first.

Sounds like a plan. Hurney, get to work:thumbsup:

I agree. The 12-4 team of last year had a bad defense for the entire second half of the season. They were only 12-4 because the offense averaged almost 30 pts. per game in that span. They need to make some moves to shore up the defense. That said, they still have plenty of time.

why so impatient? Things will get done. They have all the way to April 23 to get some money freed up. A little further than that actually.

Reminds me of the tortoise and the hare.

QFT.

you guys that are doom and glooming over the lack of movement are really funny.

keep it up. good laughs.

      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.
