Booker was not my first choice but after defending him in here for over the last 4 days only for it to fall on deaf ears, I would love nothing more than to make him our 1st round pick. In fact I hope Brad trades up to get him and stands at the podium and says he had the best tape we ever saw from an OG. It’s not likely to happen but I would be dancing in the street.
He only weighed in at 321? That’s surprising.
Thats all i am saying brother. When Ben got into trouble it was when he was forcing guys to pull and do somethinf they couldn’t bc of injury or athleticism or lack of experience. He didn’t adjust when our backups were in and couldn’t do what our starters could. Or graham was struggling bc of injury. I just have a hard time believing booker is gonna be able to do it…its why mahogany us so bad ass…short leg and all.
Mahogany was labeled by many as a phone booth dirtball guy prior to last years draft. We did not draft him based on a RAS score. We had interest in Powers-Johnson. I think there could be some misconception in what the Lions like in an IOL.
They definitely have to be tough, but that doesn’t always come in a burly package. They clearly liked Kingsley enough to offer him guaranteed money to come here, and while he’s not the biggest guy in the world, his toughness is outstanding.
Also, while Mahogany was sometimes pegged as a phone booth guy, I pretty consistently said he showed waaaay better juice than that on tape. You kinda had to go back before the torn ACL to really see it, but to me he was always one of those elite combos of juice + toughness/strength that tend to go early. We got so lucky the league freaked out about something so silly.
I been liking Miles Frazier he got some wheels when they have him pull guard
I like him too.
The betting markets supposedly have Milroe as a first rounder as +130. Really seems like he does have a guarantee. Pitt?
We were out on him before the draft. He impressed at the senior bowl. I don’t think there is a misconception on what the lions want on the offensive line.
Great porn star last name.
Your laying the wood today.
I think Pitt would take Shedeur over him, but if he doesn’t make it maybe?
Otherwise could be Rams, Seattle or one of Cleveland, Vegas, Saints Jets, Giants in a trade up. And of course us as the shocker option.
im just waiting for Daniel Jeremiahs last mock, its usually today, i hope very soon here lol.
But to your overall point there is conflicting feelings about booker. I just txted a buddy outside the organization but inside the NFL world and he thinks he will be a lion because
of the desire to destroy all humanity opposite him". That does scream Lion. And your point about mahogany is valid.
I mean since we’re doing rumors, all the smoke out of Houston is that they love Booker, so I think it’s quite possible he’d require a trade-up anyway.
There is no denying his makeup screams lion…and he is alabama…but there still are concerns.
I hope for Shadeur’s sake he goes to a dome team.
Shadeur’s Saints
Trademark it now
Let him go to the cowgirls they can put him in the ring of honor after his first season and Jerruh will let him play his shity rap song when he scores/throws a TD
