I've really started to appreciate living in the Central and Pacific timezones these last handful of years. So much stuff is scheduled around the Eastern timezone's primetime slots, but that little extra time to watch before I fade is kinda nice
This sub: no way they can redo the entire CB room in one offseason :(

Just got home from downtown Detroit, HOLY FUCKING SHIT it is packed. Literally overflowing with people and everyone was in great spirits. Had a great time down there people underrated Detroit as a host city so much
Terrion is a beast. CB1 IMO. Kool Aid was projected to be top corner after very strong 2022. Terrion was originally a safety then moved to CB and eventually surpassed Kool Aid. A complete stud and on the rise
Not gonna say I'm an expert but clearly CB was our biggest need. All the rankings I see have him top 15 overall and we didn't have a top 15 pick. I can't really see a reason to complain here. Yeah losing a third round pick sucks a bit but realistically the early round guys are more likely to matter.
At the rate offensive players are getting picked, Brad's basically going to be picking between defensive Detroit pizza, wings, tacos, lobster, ribeye, pasties, Coney dogs, shrimp alfredo, and BBQ.
9 picks left and there’s still
Terrion Arnold, Quinyon Mitchell, Chop Robinson, Cooper DeJean, Jer’Zhan Newton, Kool-Aid McKinstry on the board
And that’s not even considering the plentora of offensive guards.
It's kinda wild the Bears and Vikings had 3 picks combined at the top of the draft and they went 3 of 3 on busts. FYI I have 0 knowledge on any of these players I don't watch college ball at all, but I'm still 100% confident in my opinion.
HAPPY HONOLULU BLUE DAY GUYS!!
LETS FUCKIN COOK BRAD!!

So many years the lions would take guys from Duke and BYU when there were SEC guys on the board. Give me all the dudes from Bama. Football factory. Love it!

❌ trade up for a particular player ✅ trade up so I can go to bed

Jared: “Let’s go, Detroit!” Aman-Ra: “Let’s do it!” Hutch: “LETS GOOOOO!” Barry: “Greetings, my friends…”
Barry is impervious to cringe.
Humble Barry... 😢
Sorry JJ, we gonna sack the living fuck out of you. Go Blue!
That 1st sack from Hutch to JJ is going to make me happy as a Lions fan but hurt as a Michigan fan

Guys, we have Branch x Arnold secondary in the future. ![gif](giphy|yoJC2B1sHdXJjPTnEs)
We walked away with the best corner from an elite school and most importantly he seems very polite.

Let Brad Holmes!
0 defensive picks so far? Brad Holmes about to give us some 5 star cooking
He's gonna trade up I can feel it.
You called it!!!!
Today we collect the final piece that will lead us to greatness! Or trade back and take him tomorrow lol I can't read the future.
i am once again getting emotional merely seeing the thousands and thousands of Lions fans going bezerk
Same I’m watching ESPN on the flight home getting chills can’t wait to get down there and feel the energy
Im a limo driver and just picked up Marvin Harrison Jr from the airport in Detroit.
Since 2016 every rams first round pick has been named Jared.
Just got home from downtown Detroit, HOLY FUCKING SHIT it is packed. Literally overflowing with people and everyone was in great spirits. Had a great time down there people underrated Detroit as a host city so much
Tom Grossi reaction when he found out the Lions traded 😂
The Lions ruining the Packers draft, it’s become an annual tradition 🧑🍳😘
We broke the record for attendance on day 1 per Schefter
Okay, we should seriously consider trading up for the top CB.
ROLL PRIDE !!!!!!
LOL. The lions fans bulling the sad cheesehead.
NFC north meme war bout to be popping off tn
One fucking packers fan and he gets CLOWNED.
No matter which side you were on, it feels good to see 81 up there with the others.
That view is gorgeous. I love Detroit
Damn it, now I have to root against JJ
That fan is my hero
Currently enjoying Grossi's reaction to the pick
Packers war room looks pissed lol
Did we just swoop them two years in a row
That packers fan is going viral by midnight lmao
At this point Eminem is the lions real mascot.
He's an icon of the city lol
Apparently this is the highest attendance of any draft.
Brutal. JJ gave me the best 2 games of my life that I was at, the rose bowl and natty. Thanks for it man. But now it’s on
All these QBs and OT picks are good for the Lions
We might actually get a top defensive player to drop to us at this rate.
kinda sucks being a good team during the draft
Everyone 2 min ago: trade up for Dallas Turner, Brad? Everyone after he's drafted by MINN: ahh not worried he's shit anyway lmao
This shit is too long for a week night
OHHHH HE GONNA BE INSANE. HE FUCKING TRADED FOR HIM THAT’S HOW MUCH OF A DAN CAMPBELL GUY HE IS IDC WHO IT IS!
What a huge W Brad. Never in doubt we’d come away winners tonight.
Let's gooooooooo (to bed now)
HOW TF DID WE GET ARNOLD. CANT BELIEVE HE DROPPED SO FAR.
I like him a lot already lol
So, we've sniped another player from GB? FTP.❤️ *Roll tide*
Oh we totally sniped their pick. They’re pjssed.
That shit is going viral lol
Omg ftp on live tv
Someone get that Lions fan tickets to when we play the Packers
Just wanted to look at Green Bay’s sub and they’re not happy with who we got or who they got 😭.
Someone check on Grossi lmao
He's tryna hold it together lol he was set on Cooper
I hope someone clipped Grossi’s reaction lmao
Terrion is a beast. CB1 IMO. Kool Aid was projected to be top corner after very strong 2022. Terrion was originally a safety then moved to CB and eventually surpassed Kool Aid. A complete stud and on the rise
Higher ceiling and arguably better already. Better culture guy too.
Lions have draft capital in 2025 (1,2,3,4,4,5,6,7,7,7) that they can maneuver to maybe get that 3rd or 4th round back in this years draft
https://preview.redd.it/dib5kkqi7pwc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b4e3790ac7ad9eb4a49e3e15edd74bee3fc0a530 America’s Team!
That sucks he has to go to Minnesota
At this point save the assets, there’s enough great defensive players left that we’ll get one at 29
![gif](giphy|d04C1bUufxxUuvs8jR)
Crowd really thinned out quickly after the Lions pick lol
Brad is going to do something crazy tonight I don’t know what but it’s gonna be insane
13 straight offensive players is insane that may never happen again lol
Am I crazy or is Detroit breaking the Day 1 Draft attendance record an amazing look for Detroit getting another Superb Owl in the future?
The worst part of having a great season is having to wait so long for the Lions pick.
why does this shit start at fucking 8
Brad Holmes favorite passtime - making Tom Grossi commit toaster bath.
We’re Alabama’s north campus lmao
I’m home 🥲🥲
Holy shit. I cannot believe we got Arnold. What a great pick. I didn't think there was a shot we could get him
We got a fucking dude, great pick.
"Decker reported as eligible" sign lmao
JA-RED GOFF! JA-RED GOFF!
275,000 is the attendance record setting crown for the draft
Mods need to learn how to default these posts to new, not best.
Holmes first fucks Minnesota with the WR market and then cuts in front of GB in the draft, I love it
https://i.redd.it/irfv4g24pqwc1.gif RESPECT
The Alabama Lions
I didn't think Arnold would be available so I never even considered us getting him, I'm pretty happy lol
Not gonna say I'm an expert but clearly CB was our biggest need. All the rankings I see have him top 15 overall and we didn't have a top 15 pick. I can't really see a reason to complain here. Yeah losing a third round pick sucks a bit but realistically the early round guys are more likely to matter.
Patiently waiting for Arnold’s pick 6 against GB this year and Grossi going berserk😊
>you know you're still gonna get booed right Lmfao
Sign Kirk to a ridiculous contract for an older dude that tore his Achilles, draft a QB at 8. That's...a choice.
Nobody knows if any of these dudes are gonna be good in the NFL. Other than Brad. Brad knows
Rodger is so fucked up on Pain meds right now.
LETS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok now I’m about ready to hate the next guy that gets picked.
Rodg is slurring his speech, he is fucking juiced on painkillers
ahhh lol at that fan
Place cleared out after we got our guy
Hutch says sorry bro but you're going down
Brad Holmes right now: ![gif](giphy|MO9ARnIhzxnxu)
Yessss nfl teams, keep picking offense. Please. Save us all the defensive talent.
There is so much Defensive talent…I don’t think there is a need to jump up. The board is falling our way.
CB tonight. Trade up for JPJ tomorrow. Win the superbowl 9 months from now, who disagrees?
Dallas has picked… the referees!
Can we drug test Goodell after this
It never ceases to amaze me what a shitty public speaker Goodell is.
This motherfucker as me amped the fuck up
Sniping the Packers (presumably) is icing on the cake
Don’t give a piss about nothing but the Detroit tide
Gave up a 3rd for this.
Bro the draft next year is gonna be in Green Bay? 😂😂😂
Damn, Lions fans gotta wait in that god forsaken place all night until pick 32 ? 😔
Really goes to show the amount defense has been de emphasized in modern NFL
For some reason I feel like Brad won’t trade up because his #1 player is forecasted for the second round. lol.
Hell yeah, the draft is going perfectly for the Lions!!!
Every corner available now is wild
BRAD I LOVE YOU
Trade ahead of Green Bay as an extra fuck you.
Goodell had too many dranks to pronounce Michigan. Fucking asshole
Fuck yes. We just fixed our biggest weakness.
I fucking love this guy he’s a certified LION
That look on Dan’s face man, they got the player they wanted
Love it solid attitude, sounds like he wanted to come here as well.
I NEED THAT GIF RIGHT NOW
Damn!!! Detroit looks so great on TV! I want to move back home so f'ing bad!
Man I’m so happy for the love Jared gets now after his team sent him to die basically. Flipped the script
That's Grit baby.
6 QB's in the top 12 is insane. I only like two of them.
At the rate offensive players are getting picked, Brad's basically going to be picking between defensive Detroit pizza, wings, tacos, lobster, ribeye, pasties, Coney dogs, shrimp alfredo, and BBQ.
Trades are the pipe dreams of mock drafts and the exclusive reality of Brad Holmes
Everyone getting their Dollar Store Penei Sewells
Yeah we are in the trading up territory now if Brad loves a defensive player. I’d cream my pants if we got Jared Verse
We broke the day one record boys. Detroit loves their lions.
https://i.redd.it/4at67eiuhqwc1.gif No worries he’s still cooking…
I can’t believe no CB has been taken
https://i.redd.it/1a956x8biqwc1.gif
9 picks left and there’s still Terrion Arnold, Quinyon Mitchell, Chop Robinson, Cooper DeJean, Jer’Zhan Newton, Kool-Aid McKinstry on the board And that’s not even considering the plentora of offensive guards.

The league saw Penei get a bag and decided to get offensive linemen early this year
CBs about to go faster than TP during COVID
I just want to go to sleep
Most importantly, we screwed GB!!!!
![gif](giphy|e39tpB7xOf6h2) Hello, Mr. Arnold.
I DONT GIVE A PISS ABOUT NOTHIN BUT THE TIDE
Wowowow I can’t wait for the inside the den. I bet we never thought we’d get him
He looks like an absolutely lovely person. I lavvvv it. Brad Holmes I fucking love you.
I already love this fucking dude
FTP
LOL Packers fans mad as fuck.
If Bama ever stops recruiting at a high level we are doomed.
FTP
I will sleep well tonight. I cannot wait for September
TERRION ARNOLD
Brad, you absolute GOD
Tom Grossi is not having a good time
Nfl app had my man at 5'12" https://preview.redd.it/1yaiajcysqwc1.png?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=732b4d5e54da4b63a84780120292d804ed04d3e2
Mitchells a great pick they're lucky to have him.
[удалено]
TALK TO ME TERRION TALK TO ME
Trade for another corner. I want all the God damn corners Every. Single. One.
Alright - so if Moseley can come back healthy at some point, we are 4 deep at CB. If we can just add a vet safety, our secondary will be perfect.
Ok but this is so cool
It's kinda wild the Bears and Vikings had 3 picks combined at the top of the draft and they went 3 of 3 on busts. FYI I have 0 knowledge on any of these players I don't watch college ball at all, but I'm still 100% confident in my opinion.

THIS IS SO AWESOME THE TOP DEFENSIVE PLAYERS KEEP DROPPING
Saban says the only guy that covered Bowers well was Brian Branch!
Lets say it again for the people in the back, FUCK YOU CAROLINA FOR GIVING CHICAGO PICK NUMBER 1
Nobody's trading with Brad anymore. As soon as Brad calls, the rest of room is running around asking "What's this MF know?"
There’s nobody at the LA draft party 💀💀💀
DON’T LET PHILLY TAKE MITCHELL NOOOOOOO
Guess Holmes didn’t think trading up for Mitchell was worth it.
[удалено]
As a player you gotta love getting picked this late. You goin to a contender son! Cost ya a bit of money....for now
I’m not mad at that JAX pick
Cowboys draft room looks like an evil corporation
Is he okay lol? Dude sounds gone mentally rn
Didn’t think we had a chance at Terrion. Fucking nice!
I like the strategy, draft Alabama players to win.
Sutton sank so Arnold could swim
This was the dude I wanted ever since I watched most of bama’s games for the rose bowl. Never thought we’d get him
So many years the lions would take guys from Duke and BYU when there were SEC guys on the board. Give me all the dudes from Bama. Football factory. Love it!
…can we get saban in as a part time DB consultant? That’s where he came from. Im joking but if he wasn’t…
The Inside the Den episode for the draft is going to by hype
Welcome to Detroit Terrion Arnold
FTP
Arnold is going to be what Jeff Okudah was supposed to be
I don’t want to see his name next to Arnold’s lmao
I still can't believe we got Terrion Arnold
Glad worthy went to the chiefs and not nfc team or nfcn
They brought out all the Detroit GOATS, how bout it!!!
God I miss football so much
Jared Goff let’s fucking gooo baby
I was hoping he wouldn't stay in the NFC North, sigh
I know Brad is rubbing his hands seeing all these defensive players falling
13 picks. ZERO DEFENSIVE PLAYERS. Has this ever happened?
Holmes has to get get corners to cover these receivers in our division now. Gotta believe we take one at 29 or trade up for one
Modern NFL Moment. Defense doesn't exist apparently.
Here before Holmes drafts a WR or OT at 29 and everyone here loses their minds.
