The Detroit Lions Just Changed EVERYTHING.. | NFL News (Terrion Arnold, Ennis Rakestraw) 

Y u

It’s gonna be fun man. Super Bowl window is officially wide open.

He made the game winning pick off love in Vegas

Surprised he wasn't mentioned

Not sure why everyone is sleeping on Amik. They'll learn.

@@1stblackmanonthenet dude is a dawg

The streets will remember. Once a Raider always a Raider. Amik is him.

He’s 5’11 basically 6 foot dude.

He was a great pickup. Time will tell who becomes the starters, but all the pickups this offseason raise the bar for play. Anyone who plays poorly will risk losing their reps. And they have enough talent to allow the rookies to develop if they aren't ready for a full time role.

@@lecronflamez4606 my bad, I thought I remembered him being shorter, either way still impressive

Actually, Amik is 5'9"......​@@lecronflamez4606

He will be great against TEs, and the only two teams better than us have the top two TEs in the league, now we can stop Kelce and Kittle

He got drafted for offense bro

Got to stay healthy, and improve on pass rush moves. Speed around the corner and euro-step must be expanded on

​@@tonycrawford3818If Reader can be healthy it would be big help. Maybe just more pressure from DBs will add pressure. Hopefully they will have good blitz packages. Go Lions!

@@tonycrawford3818he got hurt on a special team play his bend is hard to handle for anybody lol

Good coaching

They saw the holes they needed to fill after the championship game. We knew there were holes.

It was due to a very strategic and intentional game plan. They knew they'd get beat in space, but in tight, short yardage situations, the secondary performed extremely well. The game plan: 1) Stop the run and force opponents to pass heavily. 2) Blitz the linebackers and safeties to assist with the pass rush. 3) If the secondary gets beat over the top, as long as it's not taken to the house, break out an extremely well practiced red zone defense (short yardage situations). 4) stop the run again. In a nutshell, Aaron Glenn played his defense to its strengths and created a game plan that would only work for the situation he was dealt. It was genius.

@@jacobvella5815 I get that, it’s just amusing looking back at it. He’s a helluva a coach. Can’t wait to see what he’s able to do with an even better lineup.

Having Vaki and Gibbs in the backfield at the same time would be cheating💀

Nah sit down

​@@davidkruse4030Nah that's actually funny as he'll 😭😭😭

Hell

The lack of pressure was a big part of that. We still have questions at safety, too. Hopefully, shoring up the middle of the line takes pressure off of not having someone great opposite Hutch.

@@Cujobob we had Jerry Jacobs and Cam Sutton starting at corner that says it all. Both aren't even on the team or starters for another. I think we're fine at safety with Branch, Iffy, Kerby, and Brandon Joseph but our d line sucked at sacking the QB not putting pressure on him so if the secondary is better on coverage our D line will get home more often

@@TripleNikel555 you can never expect coverage to hold forever. Last time, they were left on their own for way too long. Coverage sacks can happen, but this team struggled to get to the QB when coverage held up. Sutton could have been a competent CB2, but he played through some things and was tasked with doing too much. Our safeties were horrendous last year outside of Melifonwu who came on late.

@@Cujobob you mean sacks, we did well on pressures. those pressures would be sacks if we made the QBs look for a second or two longer

@@claylarson3021 the pressure rate was high, but I’d be curious to see teams compared by time to throw. Typically, this is only tracked for QBs and not for team defense. What counts as a pressure is subjective and you can pressure a QB and still fail to do so quickly.

AG hasn’t been a bad DC. The weakness in corners and D-Line coming up short left a lot of inaccuracies on plays. That’s what lead us to giving up so many.

@@SLNBLive blaming players for his lack of adjustment is a take off all time

No doubt

Probably be ST/RB/WR more than S. But if they need help at S he could play there also. That's incredibly valuable because a guy who takes up 1 roster spot and can play 4 different roles frees up other areas to carry more players. For example the Lions have 6 RB's on the team but never went deeper than 3. Add him and they have 4 RB's and can drop those other 3 guys which frees up to spots.

Yeah, I don’t like the pick if true. We already have two studs and a decent third backup. Why are we drafting him there when we actually need depth at safety, WR, and DL?

@@roems6396The team doesn’t view their needs the way you do.

Because he is OUR type of player our GM and coach wants to build this team to be.

They also said Rodrigo was LB but he even caught a pass on offense

Every team needs depth lol

They need more inside pressure to make edge work.

It's not interceptions, it's 11-1/2 sacks

Bro I was joking

😂😂😂

He is technically a safety that played nickel corner last year. We had CJGJ, Joseph, and Iffy back there. I imagine he plays a lot more safety moving forward.

You think? I think he plays more safety moving forward since that is what he was in college. I guess time will tell.

@@brandonbaty2291 Brad is not going to fix what's not broken. Branch doing excellent job, if fact probably most stabile position in the backfield, the goal is to strengthen other positions. Now if these new draft pick come in like he did then it's about getting the best players on the field... Then I can see him at safety.

Why?
