[@turnerburley340]

I think we are gonna see players not try to break the bank knowing it could be the key to whether or not a teammate they love, stay or have to leave the team!

[@turnerburley340]

Versatility is one of the traits that the Lions seek along with having high football IQ's; being where they need to be when they need to be there!

[@austinholler8094]

Almost impossible but I’d love to see Terrion Arnold and Kool Aid both come here. Would be so sick but just not realistic 😂

[@brianschmidt4429]

I'm guessing Goff and St Brown will happen after June 1st

[@Brunzy1970]

Cornerbacks cost us a Superbowl appearance last year! So please Brad and Dan get us a couple studs to plug that gapping hole. In the Lions I now trust!

[@douglasmargitza1210]

i believe if brian thomas jr falls to 18-20 ..holmes trades for him

[@turnerburley340]

As a true fan I just want fair contracts for our players because Im not secretly hoping to see Brad Holmes in a situation to fail!

[@benfoster5387]

Dude just roasted Spenny. 🤣 Hilarious .

[@turnerburley340]

I see the Lions getting Jackson Powers Johnson or a player who they like who can play center and guard who could become a top tier player at the position!

[@Detdino1]

Little mike whaaaads up yo yo

[@turnerburley340]

I dont understand why fans are promoting the maximum for Goff and Amon Ra St Brown knowing the cap plays a part in being able to sign role players!

[@pauljensen7957]

Amon ra is going to want to get paid after playing these last years on a 4th round pick contract. He’s not going to take a team friendly deal because he was already on one. And we don’t want to lose him, so pay the man

[@user-kz5yi6kq8k]

Pay him we haven’t learned from past experience Barry and megatron just pay him n get it out the way

[@thomaswatkins3686]

Lol. St Brown isnt Sanders or Johnson. Those guys weren’t upset about money. They were upset about losing.

[@davidgerald2634]

Dan Campbell said Carlton can eliminate one side of the field at times. So we'll see.

[@thomaswatkins3686]

Yeah. That’s not happening.

[@dantepalomba7356]

Starts at 2 minutes

[@turnerburley340]

When Goff is signed the Cost of the whole offensive line has to be considered because without it Goff isnt a Quarterback you want to sign!

[@austinholler8094]

Goff extension can free up cap space. It’ll all work out

[@jordinliberty]

Man pay st.brown what he wants End of story … i swear these takes are crazy now days on KZbin 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@thomaswatkins3686]

What’s crazy? St Brown isn’t Hill, Jefferson or chase. He is a possession receiver, there’s no deep threat. You don’t pay those guys whatever they want. You pay them as possession guys. He is a poor man’s Wes welker or a rich man’s Keyshawn Johnson. It’s not crazy to know the class a guy falls in.

[@Jay-n262]

Yeah sure pay Amon, Goff, Aidan, and Jamo whatever they want like there is no salary cap! 🤣

[@jordinliberty]

@@Jay-n262 the point is , Mr.slow motion St.brown is the priority. Goff can wait

[@Jay-n262]

How about Sewell can he wait too! He's going to want top $.

[@CarlThomas13]

Yep. Pay everyone 30 mil and Goff 50 mil, that makes an 8 man team. Good luck with that. Haven't mentioned Hutch Laporta Branch, along with Jamo, Iffy etc that everybody wants to pay big money to keep. Go for it with your eight-man team. You replace high asking priced players thru the draft to keep your salary cap in check

[@Hesnotavalabe05]

Let's be real no real football fan that's a fan of the Lions thinks Carlton Davis is the number one cornerback he's a number two he's going to be a good rotational piece that may get the majority of snaps throughout the year while we wait on the development of our drafted cornerback

[@antongjonaj3427]

I don’t think the lions get him I think they move up and get Quinnon Mitchell

[@LionsOnTheHunt313]

Quinyon is CB1

[@detroithustle-n-business9671]

They probably can't move up far enough to get Mitchell, he'll be gone top 15. But if they could somehow make it happen, then that would be a homerun!! 🤞

[@crushedtogloryrebuilds5375]

Goff traded for 11th and 23rd pick. St Brown 27th and 66th pick. My guess....

[@austinholler8094]

So you’re guessing we trade away half of our offense?

[@TheMSLane073]

Hmmm we need a Guard, edge and a CB, so WTF is the Coleman bullshit?

[@Achlios]

We need a WR3 buddy Reynolds is gone

[@thomaswatkins3686]

Huh? Hutchinson & Houston on the left Davenport and Paschal on the right You people just have these ridiculous ideas of what an edge at 29 will be. It’s mind numbingly stupid. The only DE I draft in Round 1 is a LDE and seeing Hutchinson is securely playing that spot, the best you hope for is a guy like-wait for it-Marcus Davenport.

[@LionsOnTheHunt313]

XLEGETTE > Keon Coleman

[@michaelwagner7445]

Hate "insiders" that speak in generalities and don't actually give any inside or new information.

[@LionsOnTheHunt313]

Renardo Green is better than KoolAid, and you can likely get him in the 3rd Rd

[@thomaswatkins3686]

Let me guess You want a defensive or offensive lineman. This is the argument people who do always use.

[@austinholler8094]

I’m sorry but no. Kool Aid is slept on simply because he wasn’t targeted. I’m all for a CB in round one including Kool Aid

[@LionsOnTheHunt313]

@@austinholler8094 Plenty of CB's in this draft will be better than KoolAid, Green being one of them. Max Melton will also be a better pro.

[@austinholler8094]

@@LionsOnTheHunt313 there’s absolutely no way of knowing that dude

[@LionsOnTheHunt313]

@@austinholler8094 Correct, and that goes both ways. Just calling my shot. That's what's fun about sports right? I like 5 or six CBs more than KoolAid. We'll see how it shakes out in the years to come.

[@diddyfaplord]

Carlton Davis was asked who he shut down last year, and he stuttered and couldn’t provide one example. I’m worried about him already lol.

[@cornelioust2165]

Damn😂

[@thomaswatkins3686]

Anybody who thinks Davis is a shut down corner probably also thinks St Brown is a home run hitter.

[@shadowman1992]

​@thomaswatkins3686 you a soft boy let's meet up in real life and talk

[@diddyfaplord]

@@cornelioust2165 yea it was during his intro press conference with the Lions a few weeks ago. He got asked right after he declared himself a shut down corner and said he shut everyone down last year, lol.
