@@Todtodtodtod Sure, they are overrated mostly. Except probably the one position where the time matters most is at CB. It used to be thought that a WR’s 40 was the most important stat. But we now know that their ability to gain separation, along with their hands, is more important. But a CB needs to be able to get back into position if that receiver gains separation, and for that they need speed. It is still overrated, but it does matter some for CBs.

Jermaine Burton played with a running qb if he played with Bryce Young his numbers would have been double

Jordan Mailata is exactly who comes to mind with Giovanni Manu

Right on… Jermaine plug and play… Mims is a monster etc. etc.

Kris Jenkins was the 2nd best run defending DT in the Country last year and was good at it in 2022 as well. So he is ascending. That nose tackle Jackson that they got he was the 2nd best NT prospect in the draft and they got him At the end of round 3. After Sweat it was Jackson. Is psyched about Jackson I think he is a really good player. RAS is not a big deal for nose tackles. They ALL have a low RAS. For instance DJ Readers RAS coming out of Clemson was 2.01. McKinley Jackson’s RAS is 4.98. That incredible for a NT. That’s almost as good as Dexter Lawrence who is the most athletic NT ever. Oh and I wish they had gotten Cade Stover the TE from Ohio State but Erik All and McLaughlin have the potential to be our future TE1. So disappointed we passed On Stover and Beaux Limmer But I like the guys they got. Oh and I LOVE Cedric Johnson. He will provide some immediate juice off the edge. I think they will have e to carry 6 DEs this year or Cam Sample will Maybe have to go to the practice squad. I would trade him because he is a good player but I’d rather keep him. Ossai is t going anywhere. He is primed To have a huge year.

If the Chiefs got Mims they would be hailed as geniuses

The BC BEAST Gio Manu makes Amarius Mims look small lol, AND tested better 🤪

I like Tyler Davis out of Clemson. I loved Beaux Limmer the center out of Arkansas. He led The combine in the bench press. He put up 39 reps.

The Lions made it to the NFC championship with Cameron Sutton and Jerry Jacobs as they're starting cornerbacks now. Those two are long gone in our second areas twice as good. We went from bottom three to top 10 over this off season. Watch out here we go baby Lions all day

It's always nice that Simms will cover the Lions, since Florio boycotts them at every opportunity.

I ♥the Bengals draft class!! LET'S GO, BABY!!

Chris Simms at 10:02, " I think they're just lookin at it like, just ya know, like you kinda explained it, just good secondary people, right". Brad Holmes..."We draft the best player available". Go make me a hot dog Simms.

If last year is any indication, Chris not loving the Lions draft is a good sign.

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how great of a screen name SeventhEvan is?

Funny I seen a lot of analyst having Arnold as the top corner some had going top 10

From a 35-year diehard Bengals fanatic, I thought it was a great draft. Kris Jenkins should know how to be a pro from his father and i expect big things

A couple flags against Braden Fiske. He is 24 years old already and he only has 31 inch arms. Exactly 31 inch arms. If you are a d lineman and have arms shorter than 32 inches that can be a problem.

My 3 favorite picks of the Lions are there last 2. Both 6th round picks. Mekhi Wingo is a baller at DT and Christian Mahogany is a starting offensive guard from day 1 if you want. He will takes some lumps but after 10 Games of starting he will Start playing better. So they got a day one starter at Guard with their last pick. Wingo is 6’1’’ 295 lbs. which is the perfect size for an3 tech Defensive tackle. Terrion Arnold will be a Pro Bowl nickel CB. I agree with Chris that he doesn’t have the speed to play outside CB in the NFL.

I don't think so, I think they drafted for depth, which is what you have to do when you get the chance when you have a QB sucking up your entire budget.

The Bengals had a good draft. Now I would have taken Javon Baker the WR from UCF before Burton but the Bengals really love and believe in Burton. I trust them especially when it comes to WR’s. Name The last WR bust the Bengals Drafted. You would have to go back to over 20 Years ago. Amarius Mims is not a bust. He is a future super star. You know in 1980 people We’re all irate that the Bengals drafted Anthony Munoz out Of USC because he was hurt a lot in College and only played 12 games. Yea how did that work out for the Bengals? Mims just needs reps. He will get some This year but even more Importantly he gets to sit behind Trent Brown this year and learn how to be a pro tackle. Trent Brown and Orlando Brown are both huge humans. So is Mims. And I don’t Know if you have seen Mims up close but he carry’s 0 pounds of Bad weight. The dudes body fat is around 10%. He is fucking jacked!! No bad weight at all! And I think they should have drafted that center out Of Arkansas Beaux Limmer but Matt Lee was my next choice. He is extremlu athletic. 9.48 RAS for Lee. Mims RAS is 9.53. But when you are his size you don’t even have to be a good athlete. Just ask Orlando Brown and Trent Brown. They win with size power and technique. Mims had size power is learning technique And he has athleticism. He will be a Pro Bowler or All Pro in the next 3 years. And I also wish they would have gotten one of The CB’s from Auburn but I like Josh Newton too and he was just drafted for depth.

Well, it takes 3 years. It is a balance.

Oh what a suprise, Chris Simms has something negative to say about the Lions. I have a good feeling the Packers were going to take Arnold at 25. Even if they didn't, who is to say somebody doesn't jump the Lions to get him. He is arguably the best CB in the draft, and they got him at 24! I'm guessing the Lions organization did something to you at some point and that is why you dislike us so much? W/E

Draft value being brought up again with Brad Holmes? Really? Last year’s draft class didn’t teach you anything, huh?

Please switch teams. Tired of listening to to idiots crying about draft picks.. 31% of first round draft picks get a second contract by the team who drafted them. It’s a complete crap shoot.. That means there’s a 69% chance whoever you wanted your team to pick is going to suck.. There’s like 10 a year that’s truly unquestionable second contract players.. prob less

A consensus top 10 big board pick who played the majority of his snaps on the outside. 2/3’s of his snaps. Simms is a 🤡!

You can see intelligence isn’t a strength of the Simms genetic pool.

None of this matters until we see it on the field. Take what the Falcons did and how dumb most people think it was to take Penix. Now imagine Atlanta going on a long playoff run with Penix replacing a injured Cousins and now that pick looks awesome. It's all a crapshoot. A game of inches you might say😂

Chris Simms was mediocre at his best at QB 🤷

Mims played 8 games in 3 years. Check out Nick Saban's comments about Mims. Injury prone & no heart. Will be a bust. Needed two picks, 2 & 4 to replace D J Reader. Pick #3 Burton, has " maturity issues", punched a woman. Pick #4 a TE who had major back surgery. Set out a year. Returned in 2023 only to tear his ACL in October. Will not be healthy to play until ? Did not address the Guard position where Cordell has been a sieve & the backups even worse. "Need to coach them up & Drafting for the future". Bengals Super Bowl window is now closed

worse haircut ever
