D4H's 2017 NFL Draft Review (Best Picks, Best Drafts, and Predictions)

No one believes it was a joke! You just had 10 days to think of a way to spin it after we beat FL and GA. You knew that you screwed up and wanted to figure out a way to make it look like you planned it.... which is just dumb and immature.

It was nothing but an excuse.

You look for recognition in likes, thread length and who believes you. You need to find out what life is really about so you can be more fulfilled. This looking to be someone special on a forum isn't working and seems desperate. It's like watching a train wreck. I know I give you hard time but it's because you try to pass opinions as fact, come off as full ego, want attention, are hypocritical, and don't admit you mistakes.

Your either a troll or you want attention badly. Neither is done by a sane person but by someone who has issues.

Just remember the only person you fool is yourself. It's like you start believing your lies and twisted thoughts.

Ok. Don't care what you think. Go ahead homeboy.
 
Another sleeper to keep an eye on is WR Kenny Golladay 3rd round pick of the Detroit Lions.

Great size and speed athlete who was productive in the MAC. I got to him late in the process and think he can develop into a really good wide receiver.

Lions in general had a very strong draft. Don't be surprised if they're a contender for the super bowl in the NFC a few years from now. I absolutely loved their picks of:

LB Jarrad Davis
CB Teez Tabor
WR Kenny Golladay
LB Jalen Reeves-Maybin
QB Brad Kaaya

Once they move on from Matt Stafford and start Brad Kaaya, look for the Lions to be a force in the NFC.

lol incredible

Not really. This is a very deep and talent class. Maybe the deepest and most talented in 20 years. In a more typical draft class Barnett would have been in the 25-35 range. He should still have a very good career. He just got pushed down by an abnormal amount of elite players in this year's draft.
 
I agree about Engram for the giants. I think we got the best tight end in the draft and with Odell,Shepherd, and Marshall out there it'll give him many opportunities to catch passes

Yep. That offense will be something special. Yall just need to improve along the offense line. If that happens, the Giants will break scoring records.

That receiving corp is just filthy.
 
The Lions should move on from Matt Stafford and start brad Kaaya, a 6th round pick.

You don't even troll well anymore.

Matt Stafford has a 8 year body of work already and he hasn't proven himself to be the type of elite QB that can lead a team to a super bowl. Maybe he can now with this epic talent infusion from the 2017 draft. However, I prefer Brad Kaaya's long term potential. He's a Matt Ryan type QB. And Matt Ryan has proven he's the type of QB that can lead a team to the super bowl.

Truth. When I look at the rest of that Lions roster I think "that's a super bowl team" that Stafford has drug down.

Their roster is a lot more talented now than it was a year ago. Jarrad Davis and Teez Tabor are immediate impact players on defense. Kenny Golladay is an athletic big play WR. Stafford has weapons on offense and a good defense. If he's actually an elite QB they should be a super bowl contender this upcoming season.

Maybe this is the year he finally puts it together.

I completely agree. If there was a threesome of draft picks that could take a borderline playoff team to super bowl contender it would definitely be Teez Tabor, Jarad Davis, and Kenny Golladay.

Stafford is the only reason why the Lions are as good as they are.

Again, you are just not even trolling well anymore. It's kinda sad.

So Kaaya, a 6th rounder is as good as a former Top 3 overall pick?

Makes sense
