    This team really isn't too hard to figure out in the draft

    I like TeSlaa. Had him on CFB fantasy team. But that seems like a bit of a reach.

    Insane reach. He tested better than I thought though. Incredible hands but had some struggles getting separation.

    I’ll be honest, I have grown to appreciate Holmes not giving a fuck

    I texted my friend last night TesLaa seemed like a Lions pick. I think I've figured this front office out a little bit

    That seems a lot like the Manu and Vaki stuff from last year but we're good so it's hard to complain.

    We might have new odds on favorite for first guy on the bust list.

    This as much as anything explains most Lions picks. Holmes is all about the traits. It’s worked to this point.

    I think he's not wrong in heavily discounting future mid-round picks, especially given where this team is right now

    It’s a balancing act as we sign more guys to extensions. I do think it’s also an acknowledgement we won’t be active in FA and much like Baltimore did for all those years, we plan on getting a lot of comp picks to make up for some of the trades we are making.

    TeSlaa is from Hudsonville, so it's very highly likely

    He went from Hudsonville to Hillsdale. The odds of him not being a MAGA psycho are roughly 0.3%

    Yeah, has to happen now. Can’t go into the season with our current DE situation, and we’re not getting a starter this draft.

    In the player comp section it gives you a couple of them

    What are the odds that Holmes traded all 5 remaining picks to get back into the 5th round. We don’t need 5 new sixth and seventh rounders on the roster.

    Team needs a safety. Let me try and guess a front office move again, if Jaylen Reed is still there in the middle of rd 5 I think we could move up for him

    Looks like Frazier has experience at tackle, so he could be a replacement for Sorsdal or Skipper.

    Think he was supposed to go quite a bit higher. Seems like a solid pickup

    So that guy we traded a. 3rd for last year that never played American football before is a bust. Who would have thought.

    Not sure they've given up on him yet, but we just lost one Guard, our other is old and on decline. Our center also seems constantly injured and who knows when he decides to hang them up. I think we needed multiple IOL

    He’s also a developmental OT replacement for Decker and I think they’re fine developing him that way.
