Lions sign T Larry Borom

[Jah26]

He was yeah.

[Martymcfly2017]

So a depth piece

[JD9]

I’d bring him in as well. Or my guy Max Mitchell who has position versatility. But need to see this Borom contract first. It’s it’s not cuttable, the tackle position is probably done until draft day.

[Tmanqz]

Needed depth at Tackle and cheap. Looks good.

[LineBusy]

Adding both Borom and Mays to the roster, there are still only 8 OL to keep. There’s room for more.

Bears fans are trashing the move, but Dolphins fans universally like him.

Apparently he was the 9th highest-rated pass blocker of any T who took a majority of their teams snaps. 3.7% pressure rate.

@Jah26

Well, this would fit well if they do plan to move Penei to LT and have Draft Pick/Borom/Frazier battle it out at RT.

Gonna be a new look OL for sure good call

My guess is that the Lions will be prepared to roll Sewell - Mahogany/Frazier - Mays - Tate - Borom/Frazier with some depth and see how the draft falls for them.

I can’t imagine any big additions to the OL before the draft now.

[JD9]

It’s the kind of add that makes it dead obvious we are going Tackle in the 1st. If we don’t add another.

I guess that’s the silver lining because that’s what I want to do.

[Jman]

Georgia Freeling or Utah Lomu

I don’t think the Lions will ever pigeon-hole themselves into a position in the draft.

@Jman

Georgia Freeling or Utah Lomu

Or Miller, Proctor, Iheanachor, Fano.

[LineBusy]

You could draft 2 new OL and have no problem putting them on the 53.
That’s the 8 on there now with the guys you’re cutting or putting on PS behind them.

[Slay]

These are his snap counts.

He’s either the best 6th OL in the league, or a very low budget starting RT. I like the idea of one, but not the other.

[JD9]

Want Freeling a whole lot more than Lomu. I like Blake Miller more and he seems like he could be DCs kid.

I’d be super surprised if the Lions carried 10 OL heading into the new year (initial 53) out of camp. Doesn’t seem like that’s what they usually do.

[LineBusy]

We’re gonna need to see some secondary help soon, then.

Many Good 1st year starting RT’s have come in rounds 2 or 3.

[LineBusy]

I 100% agree. 100%

But Scruggs isn’t guaranteed anything.
