The Lions lost faith in D'Andre Swift last year and needed to replace him, so both RB and LB were positions of need for them. I'm very happy with these picks.

Brad Holmes on Gibbs:quote:As for whether these players could have been had later in the draft, Holmes quickly dismissed that idea. The Lions general manager said they thought about waiting until Pick 18 to grab Gibbs, but they didn’t feel good about their chances. When they decided to take Gibbs at 12, that’s when the texts from other teams came in, confirming to Holmes that he wouldn’t have made it six picks later.

Big strong men were texting me with tears in their eyes, saying I had gotten their guy, but they were proud of me, not mad. Big Joe Douglas wept openly and called me sir.” We've got the best running backs. We've got the best linebackers. Everybody tells me, Brad, you guys, you have the best running backs. All the time.

Scipiotik posted:He's gone if they can get anything back, he just doesn't have the drive that Campbell wants, Duce Staley was driven nuts by him. He'd do amazing things, but not the simple things. It was infuriating watching him constantly get nothing trying to get to the edge instead of just running upfield.
