Never believed that Mo would go in the first round anyway. He'll be a 2nd round pick and have a more products career than peppers will because Jabrill should have went in the 3rd. The Browns consistently reach.

I hope you missed the post where i revealed that I'm black. Otherwise, I have to assume that you're being overtly racist by telling me to go back to my trailer. I also bet you didn't talk like that about Charles Woodson, Desmond Howard, Jim Harbaugh, jake butt, Bo, etc. Take away those Ohio trailer trash hoodlums and our program isn't nearly as prestigious as it is now. Just keeping it real. *I'm.a fu*king minority in this country and can't even catch a break here at a sports page dedicated to a liberal college football team. Smh. I hope you guys don't consider yourselves progressive. Edit - the more that I think about it, the more I'm convinced that you're an outright racist. I bet you live your life trying to convince yourself and your friends that you're not racist at all though. I don't blame you personally because you were raised like this. You all are fucking closet racists. I don't care because I guarantee that I'll be banned by 1 am by the head racists. Progressives my ass. Oh yeah, since im keepin it 100 - Jim Harbaugh is the most overrated coach in all of football. Fu*k it

2 fucks what color you are, you are an idiot with too much time on your hands. Now scurry back to eleven warriors. If you can have a meaningful conversation nobody around here cares if you are black, brown, pink or periwinkle. Or even if you are a fan from another team. But run your cock holster about the guys on the team and you get the treatment.

Hated the pick at first but loving it more and more. Best center in college. Man handled alabamas D Line and never gave up a sack in college. whole o line is now set, helps out in the offenses biggest weakness running and short yardage situations. Not the sexiest pick but a very solid pick for sure. Ill give Quinn a A if he drafts a D lineman and Rb the next two rounds

Lions have a bad defense. This pick does not address their greatest weakness and that is lack of pass rush. If they had made a splash in free agency in terms of defense I would be okay with this pick. But they didn’t. Bob Quinn has drafted exactly one DL in the top four rounds in his first three drafts. Bob Quinn sucks as a GM. First he hires his overrated buddy as HC and now this.

I see you're back to your usual self - shitting on everything.  It's okay, I understand that not everybody can always be happy, but you take the cake, man...

Quinn has been pretty good as GM, so far.  I didn't think much of the Ragnow pick when I first saw it.  But I'll admit, it seems pretty solid.  Quinn doesn't give a rats ass about your (our) opinion, so he's just doing his job - improving the team in solid ways.  Lets see what he does the rest of the weekend before passing judgement on the whole draft.

Landry has medical issues, Taven Bryan has never produced.  Every other DL on the board is a second round value.  Rashaan Evans is a stretch considering how much they spent at LB in free agency.  And Quinn's drafts have been great the first two years.  Scooped Zettel late in 2016, Decker is a good LT, Glasgow is a starter.  Killebrew could take over a starting S spot.  Jarrad Davis and Golladay from last year, plus Jamal Agnew late in the draft.  Jury still out on Tabor.  That's a good track record.

I could see 5-7 Michigan boys going in the 1st-2nd round next year if they all declare. Just to list them: Gary, Patterson, Bush, Winovich, Long, Hill, Bredeson, and maybe more if this team plays as well as we think.

Humiliation?  I didn't think he'd go this high, despite the prognistications.  Great athlete, but I don't think he'll ever pan out as a QB.  If he proves me wrong, we're going to be watching some pretty exciting football!

If Jackson can add good weight he could be a dangerous weapon in the new nfl. Compare Jackson's stats/measurables to Saquon Barkley:

Jackson - 4,132 yards for a 6.3 average and 50 rushing TDs (plus 9,043 career passing yards and another 69 TDs through the air).

Barkley - 3,843 yards for a 5.7 average and 43 rushing TDs (102 pass receptions for 1,195 yards and 8 TDs).

LJ measurables - Height 6'2", Weight 216 lbs, Wingspan 33 1/8", Hands 9 1/2".

SB measurables - Height 6', Weight 233 lbs, Wingspan 31 3/8", Hands 9 1/2".

I think the Ravens got a steal in LJ.

Frank was getting tons of love in late Mock drafts. Here's one from CBS sports. Had Lions taking G Hernandez then cinci taking... 21. Cincinnati Bengals (from BUF) Frank Ragnow, G/C, Arkansas. I've been saying for weeks: He was a first-round lock, the first center off the board and a guy teams coveted despite almost no attention coming his way until draft week. Cincy is all about fixing that offensive line.

I said yesterday, I don't care who they draft. The smart move imo was DL/OL. Quinn has done nothing be inspire condfidence in his player selections. They seem to have got their guy in Ragnow, as he was the first out of a run on OL. It sounded like the Bengals wanted Ragnow and had to audible to Price. WOTS New England was interested at 23 too.

Between Glasgow/Ragnow our LT/LG/C is solified for years. RG/RT was solidified last year, and hopefully those guys improve as they settle in with a new coach, or get a year further away from injury in Lang's case. With out OL set, we can round out the offense with a RB and then work solely on defense. 

I know we want "Now now now!" but I like the stabalization of the franchise that has happened. Building a foundation that can win for 10 years is more important than getting a team that can win 11 games next season, then 4 after, then 7, then 12, then 3.

Yes, I agree. However I would be okay with them waiting unti 3rd round for a RB if Chubb and Guice are not there. Johnson out of Auburn is enticing, though.

My though was take a pass rusher in round 2 (can't ignore pass rush needs) and then take RB in 3rd or even 4th, depending on if someone else they really like at another position is there in the third tonight.
