A lot of these guys are a priority to bring back, but you want to bring them back at a similar price. They are priorities because that's how you create depth. Guys like Dan Skipper and Evan Brown aren't great but they are pretty good backups and can be counted on in a pinch. Some of these guys are willing to go in and out of the practice squad like Tom Kennedy, CJ Moore and Skipper are valuable. In any year you might use 75 players. Some of the good years of the Lions were screwed up because they didn't have that depth.

Originally posted by froot loops View PostThe Lions this year were not a true Super Bowl contenders, but they were a team that fit the profile of Super Bowl winners that got favorable matchups and were peaking at the right time. Think of those Giant teams or that Raven team.
But I think that missing out on the playoffs, but beating Green Bay and knocking them out was a better outcome than actually getting into the playoffs. They would not have won the Superbowl and probably would have had a disappointing loss.
With the way the season played out, the Lions are one of two teams that will finish the season going out as a "winner"
I feel like I am watching the destruction of our democracy while my neighbors and friends cheer it on

If those rookie defenders from last years class takes that next step this team could be scary next year. I know Hutch will never put up the numbers that Thibs did but when he starts filling out he’s going to be crazy good
I mean Thibs should win the rookie of the year right? He was unstoppable this year? Or are their new excuses for him? Like he was double teamed so much last yearF#*K OHIO!!!

I wonder what happens with Tracy Walker. If he's healthy, he probably is still better than Joseph, altho Joseph costs much less and has a nose for the ball. Still ... is either a run stuffing safety? Can't really play them both plus ElliottWHO CARES why it says paper jam when there is no paper jam?
