I’m convinced the Lions bring in a young LS every few years so Muhlbach can somehow leech their youth and be immortal. There’s no other explanation.

I may not agree with everything Bob Quinn has done in his four years as GM, but I have to give credit where credit is due. The Lions have some really good human beings on their team, and Quinn has made an emphasis of that.

New #Lions OC Darell Bevell used fullbacks often in Seattle's offense, so we should expect more of the same here in Detroit. This could be big for fullback Nick Bawden, who has a lot to prove heading into 2019 after missing his rookie year due to injury.

If there’s anything that I’ve learned about the draft, it doesn’t matter what position you’re in, it matters who’s making the picks. I’d rather the Lions win out and bring a good general manager and head coach to Detroit than tank and draft a bust.
