Stewart and the playoffs

Who else here wouldn't mind seeing Stewie riding the pines during the playoffs as long as DWill and Tolbert are healthy?  I heard Stewart could be ready for our 1st playoff game.  But I see no reason to bring him in to play and mess up any rhythm that may have been established.  I am happy that he could be available if needed.  But is he needed as if Dwill, Tolbert and Cam are getting it done?

It was hard to watch '05 - '06 against Seattle when we IRed Davis and all he could do was ride the sides when Foster went out.

 

Keep up the momentum for sure, but don't force him in.

 

Didn't Goings get a concussion and we were using god knows who it was. Changed everything.  We didn't stand a chance.  All running backs healthy need to be ready to go.  That is one of the reasons I am glad we have both Dwill and Stewart.

Williams still goes down like an old lady. Seems like he has 10 bad runs for every good one. Getting him in space as a reciever seems to be what he is best at.

Stewart my not hit the homeruns but he has less odds of being dropped bc someone's left pinkie brushes his shoestring. We may need that. His style ideally fits what we do on offense. Slowly move the ball downfield. Negative runs are a killer.

Last time he was on the field......he looked pretty dang good

    • I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.   
    • 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.
