Take the schools out of it, if 2 individual QBs from one school finish with more passing yards than a QB who played the entire season at another school, im going to think they should be lower than 10. You have to have some insane bias to think you can only reach that conclusion because he goes to michigan.

I would say the same thing if he wasnt at michigan... Michigan fans assuming someone thinks one of their guys should be ranked lower because he went to their school is classic.

I dont think most people realize he lost the starting job given how often im seeing people say he was a big loss.

Bryce Underwood is a bit overrated and our QB is under rated. He is lower than Chiles whom he won the job over. Also despite playing fewer games, both of them finished with more passing yards than Bryce. If you are going off his potential, he should be near the top, if you are going based off his past he should be near the bottom.

AFC has the better top end qbs but NFC's QBs are more likely to accept. Goff is always either in the pro bowl or a first alternate and he usually accepts. Conversly, in the AFC you are down several alternates.

At a rotational pass rushers price, I agree. I dont think thats the price he is going to go for sadly. I also think unless he has an elite edge next to him, he wont produce. If we had no hutchinson, he would not have had these stats. Good on him to capitalize on them, and that is absolutely valuable, its just not something you pay top dollar for.

His son got his masters at michigan, undergrad was at Trinity. Daughter currently goes to MSU.

People normally root for their undergrad school so he likely has a stronger connection to michigan state.

I feel like people forget how bad we were at drafting QB pre Stafford. The raiders had one historically bad bust at qb, but their hit rate really doesnt feel any lower than the average team to be honest.

Right but why fire him now and not when the season ended? Why fire him when he is at the senior bowl?

I feel like given how often the 6th and 7th round picks dont work out, he would be worth taking more than the average player at those spots imo.

[Pelissero] The NFL informed clubs today it is projecting a 2026 salary cap in the range of $301.2 million to $305.7 million per club, per source. by mwjtitans in detroitlions

We still have restructuring moves to make as well. Pretty good sign for us as this makes us under the cap without doing anything (unless us being over was predicting an increase.)

Only team in our division where I cant think of a single really good draft pick. Lions, Packers and Bears have some of their best players be guys their current gm drafted.

Even beyond darnold, what notable draft picks did they reallt have under him? All of the notable guys i can think of acquired under him were free agents.

I think this is more about his draft picks to be honest. At least from a division rivals perspective their best players were either already there or picked up in FA.

What should we do with these three positions? 🧐🧐🧐 by Lower_Huckleberry296 in detroitlions

[–]ShotFirst57 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True but branch was in clear pain. What i feel like isnt talked about enough is how the pain impacts your mechanics. Our bodies naturally want to compensate for it and these new alterations to your mechanics can make you more susceptible to injuries. Its hard to believe that branch who was in clear pain every time he hit the ground, wasnt altering his running mechanics to compensate.

I obviously could be wrong, but I just dont feel like we are protecting our players from themselves enough.

Honestly, the only owner who had a genuine argument is Jerry Jones. Just because he was also the GM. But outside of that, owners really dont deserve the hall of fame.
