Top of the Hour on the ESPeeN, analysis on ABC.

Idiot Browns have no first round pick cause, well you know.

They are the Browns.

[Alas Babylon!]

I’ll stay on, thanks.

Let the games begin!

Accept what they need to hear, they don’t want to. Many many of the American public is too far gone to pay attention to anything that really, truly matters.

[dfwgator]

Watching a live Lions feed, they seemed stoked about the Gibbs pick.

Glad they didn’t get Levis, that wouldn’t help.

[chuck allen]

Another stud, dude is a play wrecker.

[Impy]

He always does.

[Impy]

Except in the movie “Draft Day” when he was cheered, which was amazingly the least realistic part of an unrealistic movie.

[SomeCallMeTim]

The Lions don’t need another Rb. That pick was a total waste

[Impy]

I think Poles made a big mistake passing on Carter.

[dfwgator]

They obviously are going to trade Swift.

[dfwgator]

I like the Campbell pick, I think he’s a good fit.

[cowboyusa]

Philadelphia Bulldogs.

[campaignPete R-CT]

A few teams in the mix to get Levis QB

2ND round
LA RAMS
LV ?
WASHINGTON?
TENN?

[dfwgator]

I’m not sold on Levis.

And I hate to say, I think Anthony Richardson will be a huge bust based on what I saw from him at Florida.

[MotorCityBuck]

Interesting. I’ll keep an eye out for him.
First round in the bag. I like what they have done so far.
Lions didn’t have a backup QB last year. They probably should pick one this year.
Goff is a good QB and should be around for some time, but developing someone isn’t a bad idea either.

[mware]

Think there are enough strong men on the Eagles defense to guide Carter. Can’t believe they got Smith on 30th pick, he should have went in 10.

[subterfuge]

My good friend is Levis’ uncle and he was in the audience waiting to see his nephew get drafted. It was brutal for the whole family as ESPN kept showing him along with the odds of him being available at each draft position. Damned embarrassing as the NFL invited him as he was thought to possibly go #2.
Levis did have some really attractive girl friends or family sitting with him though. Wow. But alas, no crackers drafted in the first round.

[dfwgator]

A good defense needs a leader in the linebacker core, and I see Campbell as a Spielman-like player.

But now it should be about getting Hutchinson some help, so he can truly become the dominant pass rusher he can be.

But it’s actually nice to be excited about the Lions for once.

[dfwgator]

Swift is just too brittle, Gibbs should be an upgrade.

[MotorCityBuck]

Agreed on all points.
Bottom line. They got better.
I know it because the reaction of the local Detroit media is besides themselves with anger. LOL! If their was a Super Bowl for being consistory wrong, Detroit Media / Fans would win every year.
