Day 1 & 2 - QUALITY DEPTH

[Jman]

That’s the theme, from Brad’s mouth.

Pass Rusher on 3rd down – former 1st rounder

CB with starting experience. — former 2nd rounder

Upgraded backup outside CB

So far we’ve lost
Julian
Villdor
Jacobs

Gained:
Davenport
Davis
Roberson

[Tcmouse]

Carlton Davis is not depth. He is your #1 CB. Doesn’t mean we won’t Draft a CB high. But he’s your #1 till someone can take it from him.

[Snags]

Sources: Lions acquire CB Davis from Bucs

[Slay]

• Starting RG
• Starting CB (upgrade on last season)
• Depth DE with starting potential (upgrade on last season)

Only starting DT and LG left to acquire.

A good day’s work. I feel like the LG will come in the draft, and possibly the DT too, so the main focus will now presumably be filling out the roster.

True. We’ve upgraded over last year already Sutton, Mosely coming of an injury, and now Carlton Davis.

Better than Jacobs/Lucas!

I like our corners a lot. We have 3 really solid outside guys for two spots. I don’t see how anyone can be disappointed. It is not a position of weakness anymore. Our secondary is legit. We will add a corner and safety in the draft also

Stop being positive. There must be blood… fire Holmes now…

I 100% see Davenport starting unless we sign Hunter or he gets hurt which is …. You know…. Likely lol.

I’d probably keep him on a pitch count and rotate him a bunch in hopes of potentially having him be available come december and January.

I think we add another dlinemen yet

[Usi05]

I agree.

I have a lot of trust in Brad and co.

I agree. Davenport on pitch count makes a lot of sense to me. This isn’t a “rotational” guy as much as someone that can play but want to limit the risk.

I will not suggest that we should stop acquiring value D-linemen.
