Episode #6: And then… There was QIB Mar 30, 2017

Show notes

The draft is only 5 episodes (29 days) away. In this episode Erik rolls out the QIB (Quinn Influenced Benchmark) system. What are the Quinn Influenced Benchmarks for Running Backs Who fits those benchmarks in the early and late rounds There are fewer QIB qualifying scoresfor Offensive Linemen, who fits currently on Lions? What Offensive Linemen might the Lions target late in the draft? We look at SI's latest Mock Draft Version 9.0 We once again travel to the Rod Wood-shed and listen to the requests he made at the owners meetings. We will be covering all of the other position groups in the ensuing weeks leading up to the draft. https://detroitlionsbreakdown.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/DLB_Ep06.mp3 As always, thanks for listening.

Episode #5: Mailbag Time Mar 24, 2017

Show notes

Its only episode 5 and we're already doing a mailbag episode. A special thanks goes out to everyone that submitted us a question. What are the Lions draft needs? What does the Lions Draft Board look like? Who does Erik like besides Haason Reddick? Obi Melifonwu? (not a typo) What are the chances of seeing the Lions make a trade in the first round? When might the Lions take a running back? Why do the Lions even consider taking a player with perceived "motor" issues? Who do we see starting right away after drafting them? Why not draft a DE? (Especially when they are so expensive in FA) It was great getting all the questions and we will definitely do this again. If anything ever pops into your mind that you might want to hear us talk about, send us a tweet anytime. https://detroitlionsbreakdown.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/DLB_Ep05.mp3 As always, thanks for listening.

Episode #4: 4th and Lang Mar 17, 2017

Show notes

Due to a natural disaster we have missed 2 weeks of free agency. We catch up this week chatting about these additions... Keshawn Martin (the man whose punt return never counted) Former journeyman pro basketball player Darren Fells Direct benefactor of Martin's nullified punt return Rick Wagner Hippo Hot Dogs Hall of Famer T.J. Lang Potential Ngata successor Akeem Spence Rotational DE Cornelius Washington Future starter Paul Worrilow Not Logan Ryan We wrote this twoweeks ago and we nailed it, "We expect the Lions to spend heavily on the Offensive Line, Blocking TE, Linebacker and Corner and mostly address the other needs in the draft." https://detroitlionsbreakdown.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/DLB_Ep04.mp3 As always, thanks for listening.

Episode #3: Quinn’s got 99 Problems but Cap Space isn’t One Mar 02, 2017

Show notes

The cap is up to $167,000,000! We can only imagine how mad Jim Thorpe and Red Grange are. All free agency talk this week as we look forward to the combine results. In thisepisode wediscuss... The league calendar No options at QB RBs that may have been on your fantasy team last year High priced WR options More sensibly priced TEs High end targets on the OL Pass rush and rush stuffing on the DL Dont'a Hightower and other LBs Plenty of CBs and SS John Cyprien We expect the Lions to spend heavily on the Offensive Line, Blocking TE, Linebacker and Corner and mostly address the other needs in the draft. https://detroitlionsbreakdown.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/DLB_Ep03.mp3 As always, thanks for listening.
