I must say this young man has got an extremely likable personality. Just love his approach to the game and demeanor. If this kid doesn’t pan out it sure won’t be because he didn’t give it everything he got.
Regardless of all the success we hope to have, I can say I am damn proud of the men they are adding to this team.
On a side note, I would not be shocked at all to see Martin and McNeil make a damn fine tandem on DT the next few years.
Broderic Martin was setting up for his DAY-3 DRAFT PARTY when the Lions called on Day-2. Everyone, including him, thought he’d be there after round 3. I like the kid but he’s a day-3 talent.
Then again, if they had drafted Rodrigo or Houston in round 3, we’d say it’s a great pick after year 1.
There are those–like me–who are partial to Bro-Mart. I didn’t coin it, though someone else on the board did. Either way, he’s one of the very few people you can say without gagging that to know him is to love him. I hope he balls out because I don’t want to trash such a gem of a person. I’m not a gem of a person…
