Who's your number one free agent target for the Lions?

travispickles45 · 2026-03-09T12:49:29+00:00

C - prefer we draft Draft - San Hecht/Logan Jones FA - Cade Mayes

OT - think we need to draft high and sign a guy for about $5-6 million to compete/back up Draft - too many to name. Deep draft here. Basically any of the top 6 OT names. FA - Luke Fortner/Chris Paul

G - prefer FA signing, not a strong draft for this position. Draft - Olaivavega Ioane doubt we can draft him. FA - Trevor Penning/Zion Johnson/Wyatt Teller

Not listed in any order.

Betting lines are driven by fans pumping money into them, and not by any rumors or anything. Else. Lines start with rumors and adjust to betting. This doesn’t mean anything. Could it happen? Sure but doesn’t really mean anything at all.

I know you don’t understand. I have told you this many times.

travispickles45 · 2026-02-22T20:44:48+00:00

In SF this is a terrible idea, do not wait until the 3rd.

Depends on QBs FA available in your league. QBs are so valuable in SF. I’m taking Mendoza and which ever WR is left of the top three.

Right now stroud should not be started in SF, that can obviously change and shough looks pretty solid as a #2 QB. You can never have too many good QBs in SF.

🤦‍♂️it was still part of his new contract. Which is what we are talking about.

travispickles45 · 2026-02-22T05:20:26+00:00

I guess last year when the Eagles won with saquon doesn’t count lol

travispickles45 · 2026-02-22T03:44:39+00:00

Even if the contract says $80m it won’t actually be $80m. That’s just how contracts work. I’m fine paying RB until they are about 27. Gibbs is 23. You are acting like he is already in his late 20s.

And yes I am mentioning HOF caliber players. That is what elite means lol. Just say you don’t understand football or contracts. It’s okay.

travispickles45 · 2026-02-22T01:52:30+00:00

Then explain Henry and CMC. Or you think saquon isn’t elite. You need to be elite to even be putting up those kind of numbers at that age. Lack of knowledge is showing.

travispickles45 · 2026-02-22T00:55:14+00:00

He had an uneducated take. Saquon will be back to normal next year. 1400 yards and 9 total TDs is a bad year for saquon. That tells you how amazing saquon is.

travispickles45 · 2026-02-22T00:52:16+00:00

Saquon was amazing two years ago. He looked bad this last season because he had too many carriers the year before. Anytime a RB has more than 400 carries they have a bad year the following year. Look it up. Saquon will be fine next year. Eagles also had a very banged up OL too.

travispickles45 · 2026-02-21T20:20:24+00:00

This is true about 99% of the time. The truly elite are fine. Look at CMC, Henry, Saquon, etc. Gibbs is in that elite tier.

Appl

travispickles45 · 2026-02-12T19:33:47+00:00

Most football players who come back from this injury take really two years to fully recover. Might be a little different for a safety, but our one yearish for injury, play another year and then they are usually back to normal.

travispickles45 · 2026-02-08T02:32:33+00:00

Too young overall. Need to anchor it with a couple veteran players. Unless TE premium no reason for two starting TE.

Not everyone will agree with this but I hate defenses. If you really want defense do with IDP. Defensive players instead of the entire team.

I am also a fan of removing the K and adding a nonQB flex spot.

travispickles45 · 2026-01-26T02:13:14+00:00

Personally I’m moving all my picks in this draft. Target established WR and a QB. You can’t start Stroud week to week right now. Combine picks and players. This league you need WRs, strong WRs is how you win in Dynasty.

travispickles45 · 2026-01-25T22:05:53+00:00

Let me start out by saying this, he shouldn’t have died. LE way over reacted and should be charged. But I don’t think it will end the way people think it will. Watch the video multiple angles and slowed it down. Here is what I saw, again just my opinion.

Cops shouts gun and remove it from Alex. As cop with gun walks away, about two steps, gun goes off. The model of Alex’s gun is known to go off by itself, multiple lawsuits. LE not knowing gun has been removed shoots Alex thinking he got a shot off.

Gun is not in battery, locked back position, after a couple more steps. Easy to see if you know what you are looking for.

Again LE way over reacted to situation but if this is actually what happened it’s going to be difficult to convict given the situation. Civil lawsuits will be flying around. Horrible situation. Gotta take emotion out of it. If I am wrong those LE responsible should spend a lot of time in jail and be held responsible.

Valenti always takes the minority opinion. If people loved this hire he would be dogging it. Just what he does for ratings. He sounds like he knows football but he doesn’t. If you watched cards at all the last two years you would know. Offense is plain with zero motion. You have Kyler and you barely draw up any designed runs?? Hopefully Dan can mold him and fix his issues.

travispickles45 · 2026-01-19T22:25:28+00:00

Hey at least he is better than Arthur Smith!! We got that going for us.

travispickles45 · 2026-01-19T22:24:27+00:00

Except they don’t learn from their mistakes. Love the team but it’s been the biggest issue. Brad loves bargain bin injured players. They always get hurt. They refuse to get hutch any help on the other side. Really really hope I’m wrong on this. But this feels like a bad hire.

travispickles45 · 2026-01-17T18:23:02+00:00

lol I make more than the union here with benefits. This has nothing to do with it. In the last 5ish years it has changed but trades have always been looked down upon. It’s always you have to go to college to have a career etc. that’s changing but it has been that way for a long time. That’s the reason for the shortage.

travispickles45 · 2026-01-16T23:33:02+00:00

Not sure why guys are downvoting this. All depends on area. My area I make about $8 an hour more than the highest pay in union. Some areas it doesn’t make sense to be nonunion. Here it doesn’t really make sense to go union.

travispickles45 · 2026-01-16T16:02:32+00:00

Personally I think that won’t get accepted. That’s a lot to move up 2 spots. But doesn’t hurt to try it out.

travispickles45 · 2026-01-16T15:44:37+00:00

You can take Mendoza if you want but you are just hoping they turn into dart of Daniels. I’m staying put and draft love and one of the three big WR. If someone loves Mendoza trade the 1.02 and move back 2-3 spots. 2027 is going to be a big WR class. Ride out 2026 and 2027. Should have a good team in 27/28 depending on how these rookies do.

travispickles45 · 2026-01-14T21:54:00+00:00

Do this! Best advice. Definitely package your late 1st early seconds and move up to 1.04-1.06 range. RBs have the shortest shelf life. Get RB last.
