Superduperman Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 I dunno if this is a good omen or what, but I did one last PFN draft and got this Just about everyone I could want ahead of where they're expected to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like pairing up Anderson in this defense. I'm also rather high on Brian Branch. Second round is where I think Kancey deserves to go. I think Boutte has dropped due to his off the field issue at LSU, but he's a solid depth WR to add. I think Amon-Ra could be a good influence on him. Zavala is a G i like and who the Lions have shown interest in. I think DTR is a solid late round QB prospect. I like him and Duggan day 3 to sit behind Goff. Overall, alot of things I like and could see happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that Boutte is a wasted pick but I like the idea of a WR there. Boutte was great a couple of years ago but he sucked this year and tested extremely poorly. Some of these guys might be gone - I don't think Kancey lasts until 48, but 18 is too early. He's a prime trade-up target for us in the late first or early second. I really like Branch. He'd be great insurance for when Gardner-Johnson leaves. Edited April 27, 2023 by Lions017 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah we can substitute Mingo, he was there in this mock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sllim Pickens Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 I did a mock with round 1 as it was last night and here is what I came up with. 12. Jahmyr Gibbs RB Alabama 18. Jack Campbell LB Iowa 34. Brian Branch S Alabama 48. O'Cyrus Torrence OG Florida 55. Rashee Rice WR SMU 152. Moro Ojomo DT Texas 159. Jakorian Bennett CB Maryland 173. Garrett Williams CB Syracuse 183. Karl Brooks DT Bowling Green 194. Mekhi Blackmon CB USC 222. Kaevon Merriweather S Iowa I made one trade down late to get 222. I probably went too heavy on CBs but figure the more in camp the better odds of finding the right one. The guys at the end fit the Holmes and DC style of later picks with being undersized but graded high. I wouldn't be mad if the draft turned out similar to this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob_shadows Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Ran a pfn mock (it does round one for you to set things up as it currently stands) and ended up with this. (prioritized high RAS guys and guys who seem like "Dan Campbell guys") this is not necessarily what I would do but what I could see them thing after what happened last night. 34. Darnell Washington, TE, Georgia 48. Steve Avila, G, TCU 55. Julius Brent's, CB, Kansas State 152. Andre Iosivas, WR, Princeton 159. Sidy Sow, T/G, Eastern Michigan 168. Moro Ojomo, DT, Texas 183. Gervarrius Owens, S, Houston 194. Jake Moody, K, Michigan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karnage84 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 #12 - Jahmyr Gibbs, RB, Alabama #18 - Jack Campbell, ILB, Iowa TRADE Pick #34 to Las Vegas (Hendon Hooker) for #38, #100, 2024 R4 #38 - Keion White, Edge, Georgia Tech: A huge dude (6'5, 285 lbs) with a 9.92 RAS, White was invited on night 1 of the draft. He's going to join a group that includes Cominsky and Paschal where he can develop as he's a converted tight end and still learning the position #48 - Keeanu Benton, DT, Wisconsin: The Lions still need to address the IDL and they've bypassed on Jalen Carter at #6. Benton isn't the player that Carter is but he's a very solid prospect in his own right. He'll provide pressure up the middle and allow our ends to do damage TRADE D'Andre Swift, #55 and #152 for #60 and #92 > The selection of Gibbs has made Swift expendable and is likely on his way out the door. The Lions get the value of a 4th round pick in this move, which is likely what Swift's value is going to be at this point. #60 - Matthew Bergeron, OT/OG, Syracuse: A player that had been getting some 1st round buzz, he is a versatile player that can be played at OT or OG and gives us some flexibility on the line #92 - Michael Wilson, WR, Stanford: He's one of my draft crushes and I hope that a) we get him and b) his health checks out. He's a true X WR that is going to round out our WR corp. #100 - Cory Trice, CB, Purdue: This is a deep CB class and I expect the Lions will try to take advantage of that by adding talent much deeper in the draft than they would be in most other years #159 - Sidy Sow, OG, Eastern Michigan: Double dipping at OL, big body guy with a lot of experience #168 - Starling Thomas V, CB, UAB: Double dipping yet again. Thomas has really good physical tools. Good developmental prospect #183 - Noah Gindorff, TE, North Dakota State: A strong blocker with upside as a pass catcher. The Lions bypassed on Washington due to medicals and now opt to address the position #194 - Ronnie Bell, WR, Michigan: The Lions have met with Bell multiple times in this process. The suspension of Jameson Williams does increase the need (slightly) for the Lions to add at WR. Solid run blocker and a competitive player.

Millenhater Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 My prediction for day two is we either do a slight trade down or a trade up but we land these three players: Steve Avila(maybe Torrence or Bergeron) Jonathan Mingo Darnell Washington or Michael Mayer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louis Friend Posted April 28, 2023 Author Share Posted April 28, 2023 12. Jahmyr Gibbs RB Alabama 18. Jack Campbell LB Iowa No trades. 34. O'Cyrus Torrence OG Florida- Branch and Porter were first two players off the board. Comes in and immediately competes for starting position. 48. Julius Brents CB Kansas State- the last of my top CBs in this draft. 55. Rashee Rice WR SMU- Hyatt, Tillman were both gone. 152. Moro Ojomo DT Texas- Took my best DL available here. 159. Andrew Vorhees OG USC- Doubled up on IOL. He can sit for the year and heal. 168. Dorian Thompson-Robinson QB UCLA- developmental QB to sit behind Goff. Has run ability. 183. Karl Brooks DT Bowling Green- my favorite late round value pick. I wonder if he lasts this long. 194. Jake Moody K Michigan- best leg in the draft.

I like Brents but wonder if there will be a better player there. But I think you landed some good players. I think Torrence would awesome in our scheme next to Sewell.
