Not really into the fashion part of the NFL but I don't mind what they did. I'm glad they got rid of that goofy number font and I like the black jerseys with blue helmet. I'm glad they kept the logo as is.
Pundits said the same thing about Sauce Gardner. But, he did okay.
Sauce did go up against Notre Dame, Alabama, and Tank Dell’s Houston team his last year. He got tested more.
Still I’m fine with Mitchell, skills are there and he more than held his own at the Senior Bowl.
Hey Badnews, I agree with you, the more I read about Graham Barton, the more I like the kid. I think he could start as a Rookie on the Lions OL. He is that good! He would be a great pick if he falls to 29. Next Gen Stats rates him 90 elite.

Unfortunately, I don’t think he’s making it there.

Hearing a lot of buzz about Zach Frazier and that he's a Dan Campbell guy. I don't hate the idea of having a guy who can also play center since Ragnow is a bit of a ticking timebomb.

Yeah Frazier is 100% the kind of guy they love. I’d like it more in a trade back because I’ve seen a few people say they think he’s Center only and have doubts he’d be able to handle Guard.
Well really we shall see if Frazier comes. Seems like Dan Campbell likes him. But really hope that they can really keep on getting better and better with Campbell at the helm.

Any bold predictions?
I say Holmes trades up for Mitchell after he slides.
If they stay put and there are no 1st round grades left on their board they will trade down. After Arnold and Mitchell the rest of the CBs are a complete crapshoot.
If they draft at 29 I say the pick is Darius Robinson or Kool-aid.

I think this actually seems likely. I think it may be Arnold, though.
My 2 wild cards are if Brian Thomas falls to a point, I could see them moving up for him. Could see Jared Verse if he falls, too. He feels like a perfect fit opposite Hutch.
I feel like they’re not gonna pick at 29, either moving up or moving back. Who knows what chaos at the top may cause.

First draft in decades where QB's and WR's are not being coveted. Meat and Potatoes are on the Menu. OT OG C should be the pick. Protect all these assets we already have. Brad might even trade up a bit for the right one. If not, trade down for more picks and plug other holes in the Defense. Any old hoo...Hoping for a good draft again from these guys. Been pretty good here the past few years. Go Lions Front office.
