UDFA Thread

There’s no room for Zoltar in a mind that fixates on Demetrilious Taylor.

Now I really like it because there’s so many messages it could convey. For now, I believe that your message was not hurtful, but the ambiguity allows it to be hurtful without me even knowing. In that case, I like it even better.

That was great, thanks for sharing.

I don’t pretend to have any ability to analyze, but he looked pretty stout from a layman’s perspective. Double teams rarely moved him back much, and single blocks largely got pushed back toward the quarterback.

I wonder how much of that is due to him being older (24) playing against younger guys. Hopefully, he’ll be able to contribute at the pro level.

I got tired of researching Big Foot, DB Cooper, and why OJ is innocent. So I looked at the Lions roster on OTC and found that Eric Hunter, not Aidan Keanaaina, was paid the most guaranteed money of the UDFAs. (The second to the last figure is their guaranteed money.) Initial reports said otherwise. This changes everything.

Erick Hunter $885,000 $8,333 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $242,500 $893,333 $250,833 $642,500
Aidan Keanaaina $885,000 $6,666 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $180,000 $891,666 $186,666 $705,000

So this is some red meat hopium from a couple of Texas guys about Anthony Lucas before the draft. AI guided me to it because it knows I can’t quit the Lions even in the spring. Anthony Lucas hype incoming…

That is from early February of course. They still talk about him at 285 and he weighed in at like 267. He could have dropped weight but if so then you would have expected to see him run. So I’m thinking he plays right around 270 as opposed to the listed 285. Which is fine it just makes the movement skills on some of his craziest reps seem less freaky.

It looks like they were still in the process of gathering info. Here’s a summary of the 9 UDFA’s that we signed, per OTC.
