Considering he's coming off a catastrophic injury and that we have two capable starters, there's really no need to rush him. Now if you're not expecting much from him because you think he's a bust, or a waste of a pick, that's entirely different and shortsighted. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm skeptical of him ever living up to his draft status, but I don't want to write him off completely. My hope is he can make some type of impact this season, even if its just on Special Teams, and maybe by next season make that leap. I have more faith in guys like Booth or Evans becoming capable players for us, at least in the short term. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Cine has impressed his teammates with his intensive workouts, including Harrison Smith who said, “I was like, ‘I completely forgot he was hurt.’ I’m not even sure if I’m even supposed to talk about that. But he’s doing a great job.” vikings.com but i'm sure you know better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what I do know is that this football forum allows me to experience all sorts of football related opinions, even ones that I don't agree with, or ones that I didn't consider at first! When so much of our social media is nothing but a vast echo chamber, seeing something different is quite refreshing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually when you start a sentence/argument with "so...xyz" it falls into the realm of a logic fallacy. Good luck with your straw man. I'll stick to football! I think the Lions could be a surprise Superbowl team in 2023 like the Bengals were in 2021. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of late 1st round draft picks have busted. He wouldn't be the first and he won't be the last (if he does bust). It is undoubtedly a big year for Cine. It is also encouraging to hear he is progressing well in his rehab from a teammate and not a team doctor. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Lions make the Super Bowl, then we certainly know that the Apocalypse is upon us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swede700 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 (edited) Which makes sense. Who would want to stay when they spent a 2nd rd pick on you 3 yrs ago and now clearly stated that they want to move on by signing Montgomery (which I had already forgotten about and now makes me even less clear on what the hell they're doing) and drafting Gibbs.

vike daddy Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 does that lessen Cook's value? which i would think is a good thing for us, if we keep him and renegotiate a contract price. bad thing if we want to trade him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
