That would have sucked.
I’m loving how these things are now going our way after decades of them not.
And we’d have all made fun of the Vikings for it, and Gibbs would have promptly shut us up.
If the Seahawks don’t pick Spoon, I think Gibbs is a Viking, and that would’ve really sucked.
I guess that’s what happens when you hire people that can actually evaluate talent and have the intelligence to have a plan for the draft and building the roster. Who knew that’s all we needed to do to become successful.
Agreed. So in that scenario, what spot would we have picked which RB in the draft?
Nah I think we would have taken him at 18, or traded up from there to get him.
Not if the Jets got him first at 15:
That is assuming Brad doesn’t trade up to grab Gibbs in front of MN.
That’s assuming Minny didn’t have a move or spot where they’d consider him.
Regardless I’m glad he’s ours and not theirs.
A Rodgers screen to Gibbs … woof.
I hope half our offseason is spent trying to figure out how to do a proper screen.
This…100%.
Amen to that. The Lions have way too many studs and speed to have a shit screen game.
Now BJ has done a great job overall. Don’t get me wrong. But we can be better in many areas. The screen game is a big one.
Screens to Gibbs. To Jamo. To Laporta. All could deadly. Especially with the lions blockers out front. Especially when defenses start blitzing a lot.
Like Artose Pinner
If I squint my eyes I can almost see Gibbs in Viking purple running roughshod over us. Shivers.
Impossible…Nobody drafts a RB in the first round now, It’s a wasted pick.
remember… 
Just about every player Holmes has drafted on day 1 or day 2 comes with several stories about how other teams really wanted them.
Brad Holmes Knows.
Giants were thinking about drafting Jack Campbell at No 25 and there tons of pre-draft stuff about him including this one on the “best LB in the draft”:
