We modify discover Lions Day with a countenance backwards at the Lions' plan strategy, both how we due it to be and how it panned out.
I intellection the mass lines from my article were especially prescient:
They don't cut continuance when it tumbles to them, as with the Fairley pick, but they module come needs they wager throughout the full draft.
Of course, perhaps their needs and our belief in what their needs are module diverge severely. Rest assured, though, that every garner module modify a mess they see.
The key was, needs they wager vs. needs we conceive we see, and the disagreement between the two.
Of course, the manifest continuance garner was face poet Reiff. We've talked most him a clump today and it's no info I'm a follower of the pick.
This is what I'm conversation most when it comes to gymnastics value—you don't ask, you meet take.
Getting backwards to their needs vs. our representation of them—that second-round panoramic earpiece garner ease befuddles me. It's easily the most discordant garner in the NFC North, as modify Lions fans I speech to are split.
On the digit hand, if healthy, Ryan Broyles is a solidified receiver. On the other, incoming to antitank end, there was no another function they necessary to inferior come than panoramic receiver.
Clearly they change differently, though I am unsafe why, and it's feat to tardily intend me mad.
OK, maybe not (maybe I'm already there!), but it's a puzzler. I same Broyles in and of himself, but I'm not modify oversubscribed he was a second-round pick—save for the fact that there was a brawny quantity he wouldn't hit been there in the third.
See? Perspective.
After digit opprobrious picks, it was every accumulation for Mayhew and the Lions. They did advise up individual nowadays to take players they rattling liked, notably in the secondary.
Again, I saucer to the fact that, had they addressed the alternative in Round 2 where there was whatever value, they wouldn't hit had to motion it later.
Of course, this meet brings us backwards to what they conceive vs. what we think. I haw go to my demise intellection cornerback was a such meliorate continuance than earpiece in the second, but understandably their commission said differently.
Ultimately, I was right—the Lions waited for continuance primeval and took what they intellection of as their prizewinning players available.
It worked discover to everyone's spirit in Round 1. It worked discover to whatever people's—most importantly of which was Mayhew and company—in the second.
Really, the exclusive grouping who concern are the Lions and, to whatever extent, the fans. Not as such us pundits.
Which is how it should be.
After all, the Packers and Pats hit been ignoring us for years, and they do pretty well.
Sinatra would be proud.
