I was a big Bijan cat. However after we got D~Mont I said we need Gibbs. But I never thought we would get him @12. Brad Holmes does it again. With the move back we got the best RB/ Weapon and we got Laporta. Absolutely Awesome job from Brad Holmes.

Yeah man Melifonwu has all the attributes to be a DAWG. Long, athletic, tough...just hoping his momentum continues into 2024!

We were so desperate at the time for secondary help, we reached and signed a couple of has beens with with injuries. This year is a whole different situation, and its going to help so much! One more year of drafting and our secondary will be as good as our run defense. *LIONS SUPERBOWL* *2024/25 IS OUR TIME*

@johnnygazsports 3 месяца назад

Yes sir! I think the two rookies will do well to learn behind fiesty veterans like Davis and Robertson.

If this secondary stays healthy and Our improved D Line. We have created a No Fly Zone.

I hope you got it right my man! They seem to be cultivating the right talent in the backend now so it should be fun to watch come together!

@sagittarianking1398 3 месяца назад

Our Best Secondary Ever!!!!🎉🎉

@Hesnotavalabe05 3 месяца назад

On paper chill. We still gotta gel threw the first 3 to 4 games. To come together.

@TripleNikel555 3 месяца назад

Not a hard thing to accomplish but I agree

@Detroitdiehard 3 месяца назад

I like what we have on paper,but they have to gel and hopefully we don't have the injuries like last year . We also have better dept

@johnnygazsports 3 месяца назад

Agreed. Much better depth this year!

@geoffginnard1195 3 месяца назад

@johnnygazsports 3 месяца назад

Agreed. He is a special weapon on defense and if he is healthy he will be a problem for offensive coordinators.

@shawnzinator 3 месяца назад

Cam Sutton was abysmal, did you watch him with decent eyes? Was so happy we released him

@johnnygazsports 3 месяца назад

I agree with you he was not athletic and not good enough for a #1 CB. And the Lions wouldn't deal with that circus.

@jaybrick8973 3 месяца назад

The guys we signed last season didn't work out at all im starting to see its best to just draft the right way an bring in good players that way. I look at teams like the bears I believe that will be there downfall signing big name free agents wont mean much if you cant draft which they haven't done better than the lions. Only team I can see giving us problems is the packers unfortunately

@johnnygazsports 3 месяца назад

You are right! Building and cultivating through the draft is key. They are showing this finally. The plug in one year guys hopefully don’t hurt them long term. I feel better about the FA’s they brought in this year but still injury risks. 🤞

@LiberalMedia1 3 месяца назад

What I like about these guys is how good they all are in versatility (a staple of Lions players) and run support. Most teams will be forced get away from the run early in the games. The pass rush opportunity should be much improved this season as a result. I agree with most of your statements. However, when it comes to the reason that the Lions didn't bring back CJGJ... I believe that CJGJ didn't want to come back for a rotational role. He came here on a one year prove it deal. Missed the season. When he came back others had stepped up and he wasn't given the role he expected. Not exactly what he signed up for IMO. From the Lions side, they knew who CJGJ was when they brought him here so I don't agree that his personality was a turn off for them. I do think his personality was a turn off for fans, but I believe that's because he missed the season and couldn't contribute to the wins. Fans are fickle, but CJGJ can ball. Thanks!

@johnnygazsports 3 месяца назад

I appreciate that opinion. You might be right. Certainly only my opinion but he seems like a guy that would have flip flopped no matter where he ended up. Track record. A guy that produces that much and no team to this point wants to offer anything longer than a one year....I question that but there are always other factors.

@LiberalMedia1 3 месяца назад

@@johnnygazsports The 1 year situation is due to the safety market in general (J Simmons is unemployed!!). CJGJ on the other hand is back with another team that knows him and his track record. A team with realistic SB aspirations wanted him back in the fold ASAP. Opinions vary. Thanks again

@johnnygazsports 3 месяца назад

Good point! Surprised no one has jumped on Simmons. Love the discussion for sure.

@MichaelDevereaux-zr3pt 3 месяца назад

I completely agree about CJGJ. Elite athlete and great energy, but just not a good fit for the Lions. And I may be biased against Cam Sutton, but I am so glad he’s gone. He may simply have been asked to do too much as CB1. How many times did I see this? : 1. The quarterback completes a pass to a receiver wide open near Cam Sutton. 2. Cam Sutton is about 6 yards away, but he dives to the ground in the general direction of that receiver. 3. Maybe Cam Sutton is trying to make a shoelace tackle, but his fingertips are still at least 3 yards away from the receiver, who races away from him, while he lies there on the turf, gasping like a fish on the beach and completely out of the rest of the play. The futility of watching him uselessly lying there on the ground over and over with something I just couldn’t stand,

@johnnygazsports 3 месяца назад

I 1000% agree with your Cam Sutton assessment. He is not a man corner at all. Lacks pure athleticism. He is a serviceable #2 at best but I am glad they moved on. You are spot on with your 3 points.

@TripleNikel555 3 месяца назад

He got a penalty on that play he hits bijon's lame ass on

Did the Lions do enough in the secondary to take the next step in ‘24?

@@johnnygazsports Two questions: If James Mitchell fell in the woods and nobody was there to hear it…? 2: How many HOF’ers are currently on this roster? Obviously it’s a big projection but I say it’s already the most the Lions have put together in the last 50 years. All in there prime…. We going to Sizzler this year.
