Folks fall in love with guys and see no alternative. Remember when fans went crazy about the fact Jalen Carter was going to be there at 6? Not only did the Lions pass, they actually went out and traded down with him on the board to take the opposite of a DT. Nobody liked the Gibbs pick. But Holmes saw it. Bates is a fan favorite because they hear his name every week. Turner isn’t the sexy name. But this GM has a completely different plan at K. And Turner might get a long look. Might even be worth it.
James Turner was so good last year until the Rose Bowl. It was a s show. The good thing is 15 of the Lions game in the regular season is indoors so let's get the competition going! Bates will only bring in the competition. Love it
These guys shouldn't be missing anything. This is not a game. There's no pressure. They have one job, and they practice all the time. Half the football players on the field can do their job. For fun. They know that, right?
This is awesome news! I absolutely hope Badgley is gone next year. There is a very good reason we kept going for it on 4th. I wish Badgley the best, but you can't continue being as untrustworthy as he is. So excited for next season! Go Lions! :)
Put it all on the line with pre-season, setting up opportunities to *kick lots of extra field goals just for the purpose of picking the right guy.* Obviously, Dan isn't comfortable with Prader. That's what truly counts. Or he'll never kick a damn field goal again ! 🦁🦁 *GO LIONS* 🦁🦁
