Stafford is a scrub, Det needs to trade down and draft some solid linemen. There is no quick fix here, the team needs rebuilt from the ground up.Quote:

I do like Aaron Curry too. Detroit has had issues with defense for years now, and picking up Curry to work with Sims would be a great line. Man, Sims on the weak side, Curry on the strong side, that's a formidable line.
I wouldn't trade for a player... but rather trade down and pickup multiple picks.
Detroit needs help in so many areas that I think that they'd benefit more from multiple picks.
Problem is, many teams approach the draft wanting to do this. Those first few picks can cost the moon!Quote:

Now you can always wheel and deal after the 1st pick... but there is a time limit (not so much of an issue before the draft with the #1 overall) and every other team can wheel and deal just like you can (i.e. if you are going for the 2ns overall, you may have competition in a very limited amount of time to pull a deal).
Digital. This is what I meant.Quote:

Jason Smith or Eugene Monroe would be solid picks for Detroit, but they won't put fans in the seats, so they will pick Stafford.
Apparently, the Seahawks traded Julian Peterson to the Lions for Cory Redding and a 5th.

Peterson refused a paycut. wth. would one of the Lions fans please tell me about Redding? I hear he has 'bust' written all over him.
Damn, Lions going for gusto.
Detroit will Draft Stafford.......the next joey herrington...YAY
Maybe. Lions won't be taking Aaron Curry now.
So, about Cory Redding..:D
Good luck with him. :D
Its back!
Jerry Jones must be shitting his pants "O ****, my giant *** TV is in the way"
They better fix that, it's ridiculous to have punts hitting into something in pro football
They wont. The league approved the design before it was made. JJ doesnt have to change a thing.Quote:
