Louis Friend Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 CB/S was a need and Branch fell. Solid value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davisblack Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Solid value pick. Also its pretty neat that he went to the same high school that Calvin did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sllim Pickens Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 He will have a year to learn CJGJ’s roll and be a solid fill in next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Want A Title Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Brian Branch is good value and is a solid prospect. Keeanu Benton would have been my selection but clearly felt the need to continue add DBs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Friend Posted April 29, 2023 Author Share Posted April 29, 2023 I was hoping for Branch at 18. If we would have taken Branch at 18 and Campbell at 45, everyone would have thought it was a better overall draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ty21 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Not here to troll. This was really the only pick I feel the lions nailed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Friend Posted April 29, 2023 Author Share Posted April 29, 2023 I think the Lions did great tonight tbh. I just don’t think guys were picked in the order people though they should have. Branch was my favorite pick though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millenhater Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I know everyone loves this pick but I have my concerns with him. If we play him as just a nickel I think that would be a mistake. I think he has to play safety/flex that can cover the nickel. I think if he has to cover seem or deep routes vs speed guys he's going to get burned. If he can be that third safety I think he can thrive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we play Branch in a similar role as Tyron Matheu he will be a stud. If we play him as purely a nickel I don't think we are setting him up for success or utilizing his skill set correctly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
