Man

If the 9ers can manage to hammer down a decent QB, their offense is going to be crazy

About Alexander...

continuing from the last thread… he struggled quite a bit before he got hurt last year. Maybe it was scheme?

by DrewsLions on Apr 26, 2009 3:41 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

tampa 2 is the worst defence

every single TE tore us apart

LIONS

by lions4life on Apr 26, 2009 3:42 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

People were more high on Alexander

than Bullocks, who I think is great… S was a non-issue to me, but Gunther is a DB coach, so he thinks a S is going to be our Mike (the guy calling plays)

hope Delmas can handle it

by Nate D. on Apr 26, 2009 3:42 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Considering our playbook

Was the Tampa 2 for dummies. Yeah possibly

idk who i hate more

every boston team or every chicago team

It's funny how their fans chant "Detroit Sucks"

When’s the last time that city has won a title?

So True

And now their all shitting themselves over the Cavaliers when Lebron is just gonna bolt for New York

by detpistons3 on Apr 26, 2009 3:46 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I hate

Cavs Celts
Browns >>> Pats
Indians Red Sox (I actually kind of like them)

by detpistons3 on Apr 26, 2009 3:46 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Wow

That format didn’t work well at all. I meant to say I hate cleveland teams more than boston teams in a really complicated way

Great defense by the Bulls

Leave the best shooter wide open.

Same thing they did in game 2

Ray Allen hit that 3… how do you leave him uncovered?

Alex Boone taken yet?

Buckeye here….he taken yet?

by mgersz on Apr 26, 2009 3:48 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I don't think so

That said, I would be happy to see Detroit take him

by Nate D. on Apr 26, 2009 3:49 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Arent

Beckwith and Ellerbe still availabe?

by detpistons3 on Apr 26, 2009 3:50 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Why I hate the Pats

Its the 6th round. The Pats have 8 players and two 2nd round picks for next year

by Nate D. on Apr 26, 2009 3:50 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I like Ringer...

to Titans, he can be more reliable than White, and Lendale has a poor attitude

by lions_sucker on Apr 26, 2009 3:51 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Boone was tazed by cops

Boone likes to drink and was recently tazed

by mgersz on Apr 26, 2009 3:51 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Same here

I would still play some badass football

by Nate D. on Apr 26, 2009 3:53 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

good for ringer and titians

i thought he would go sooner.

by lionsfan64 on Apr 26, 2009 3:52 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

awesome...

well get more 7th round picks and get drop further down on MLB and Oline

by lions_sucker on Apr 26, 2009 3:52 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

maybe

we got one of their olinemen. ha.

by lions_sucker on Apr 26, 2009 3:53 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

they are driving me nuts

like more bodies just hope they have some life in them.

by lionsfan64 on Apr 26, 2009 3:53 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

They got a QB

But this trade is bunk, unless we only traded down to 12th (in this round)

Brandstater

Makes sense, Fresno System is simalar to Patriots system.

by momentumchange on Apr 26, 2009 3:54 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

to replace Cutler...

TOM BRANDSTATER!!!! McDaniels for coach of the year. I don’t know why, but I dont like him, too cocky.

by lions_sucker on Apr 26, 2009 3:54 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Nobody does

I actually feel bad for Denver

by Nate D. on Apr 26, 2009 3:55 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

In all honesty

It’s the 6th round… none of this stuff is a big deal.

I’d rather hear about the relevant, early round picks

by Nate D. on Apr 26, 2009 3:56 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Good trade, its not as if we haven't already filled all our holes!

I think we are going to kick ass with a bunch of undrafted free agents. They will flock to Detroit because they will look at our draft and say to themselves; “These guys will effing take anybody. I should try out for them!”

Think of the money the Lions will save!

God

I really go from OK to ‘I fucking hate this draft’ so quickly

by Nate D. on Apr 26, 2009 3:58 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Why......

……Nothing wrong with picking up a pick for next year too

by BennieBladesFan on Apr 26, 2009 3:59 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

For the first time ever

I’m going to say, Go up a few posts and read what NorthLeft said.

by Nate D. on Apr 26, 2009 4:00 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Gotta be something next year

I doubt we would trade a 6th for 7th straight up.

Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog

by Sean Yuille on Apr 26, 2009 3:58 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

god stuff if that's what it is!

I like banking picks like that. With an extra 5th rounder, we can easily trade up into the 4th if we want to, and all for a 6th round pick sliding down to a 7th

they must have really wanted Brandstater.

Thats not the kid of the guy that calls Lions games on the radio is it?

by BIGWalt2990 on Apr 26, 2009 4:01 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I am beginning to like this draft

As they said…building the RIGHT way….let’s hope they are right.

by mgersz on Apr 26, 2009 4:02 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I really have no response to that question.

Most of the goodwill and admiration at the offseason that Mayhew and Schwartz have so far conducted has evaporated over the last twenty-four hours.

Hopefully, I will feel differently by the time the regular season rolls around.

by NorthLeft12 on Apr 26, 2009 4:11 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

so are we gonna get a MLB or what?

I hope they’re on the phone to Napoleon Harris right now

by JazzyBBP on Apr 26, 2009 4:04 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

This late in the draft, it doesn’t matter if his cons are speed and shedding blocks. If he’s instinctive and smart thats what counts.

Dammit

I lost power for the last 15 minutes for no reason

by Nate D. on Apr 26, 2009 4:25 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I wanna see...

Andy Kemp at G and Derry Beckwith at MLB, then take another MLB and Oline with the other 2 picks.

by lions_sucker on Apr 26, 2009 4:27 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

haahaa...

I loved Shawn Kemp, I have a couple rookie cards around here somewhere

Us take Oher, oh wait we passed on that

Sanchez

Seems like a real clean cut kid… He’s polished the hell out of himself for these interviews.

by Nate D. on Apr 26, 2009 4:31 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Yeah

I feel you… Lost power earlier… now the doom clouds are rolling in… are you guys getting hit in Ann Arbor?

by Nate D. on Apr 26, 2009 4:32 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Just rain

It’s been out longer than yesterday when we actually got a storm.

still love Traverse city in the summer

plus you get alot of sympathy as a Lion fan on the west coast.

Chris Baker...

is still there too, we could take him, Derry Beckwith, and Andy Kemp, then maybe a CB.

Don't worry

Lions will trade for another 7th rounder

Cornelius Lewis OG from Tenn ST.
