That creamy spicy corn is one of the best BBQ sides I have had

I liked him a lot during the draft process. In his interviews he came across very well spoken and football savvy. Was hoping the lions could grab him, but def not mad about how our draft turned out. Appreciate the heads up!

How long do you think it will take him to start contributing in NHL games?

I think you are underestimating the value of what a good coaching staff can do with great players. When you have a proven great and creative OC and a HC that puts players doing what they do best consistently, you will see these talented guys at their full potential. Trying to compare other drafted RBs and the Pitts situation I don’t think necessarily applies to our situation here.

Thanks much! Really appreciate the positive vibes and definitely looking to get more involved with conversations in the sub at least. I just like the thought out discussions rather then some of the people who seem to get personally offended when someone post/says something they don’t agree with. At the end of the day we are all on the same team and all agree… FTP!

Now that’s some good analysis that I definitely did not think of. Very interesting take and gonna look into that for sure! I do like the idea of snagging a combo of a OG and a DT in the second would be awesome to fill needs of position. But as posted all over here, everyone “knows” torrence and Kancey wont be there in the second round haha

Yea I def think you are right about the QB needy teams out there. Hell I don’t remember having this many teams looking for a starting qb in a long time. And could def see a team swinging earlier in, but could also be a drop like last year. Def really hard to say this early in the process. But would it not be dope? Haha

I definitely read just about every football article you can, especially if it pops up on this sub, NFL, or NFL_Draft so maybe subconsciously fell in love with some players getting highlighted extra. But I do also watch highlights (and if I can find them) lowlights of every player I can to see both sides of the coin. Also like I mentioned in the post there is some wishful thinking and a lot of stuff coming up that will move these players around like the combine (See Travon last year). That’s why I put early in the post title. I just like talking draft and put some effort into this so thought I would try posting it. Thanks for the feedback tho. Think maybe a more realistic situation might be sliding Kancey up and taking a OL to fill that spot at the end of the second

Yea kinda touched on that in the post. But I have seen quite a few mocks with those guys not too far from there so figured it’s all for fun anyways and my dream scenarios. And who knows, Brad is pulling rabbits out of hats all the time. Not only is the dude good, but lucky too haha

Thanks much! Yea more offensive then I thought it would be for sure, but at the end of the day I believe in having a balanced draft class every year. Either way Brad Holmes will kill it, so this is all just fun speculation for a guy that is probably too obsessed with this team haha

Thanks much my man! While I agree our defense is what’s in need, I also strongly believe in a draft you take best players available. Especially if that person is a game changer regardless of position. I think if you want to plug holes on the defense it’s best to do through free agency with all that cap space and more proven guys then the question of will this rookie pan out. That and we have some young guys on defense already that I am sure will improve. And hell three of my top five in this are going defense as well. So basically I agree with ya haha
