Colts are loading up to protect Andrew Luck. Braden will get plenty of opportunity to do his job. I was hoping to see Kerryon go to the Panthers and play with Cam. I hate the Lions and they are pass happy af.

Hopefully they all produce consistently. We haven't had this many picks in the first two rounds since 05'. We've had too many of our picks disappoint. G-Rob isn't on a team and neither is Tre Mason. Sammie bouncing from team to team. I believe they can do it.

If Detroit will use KJ correctly, he will be a huge 3rd down and passing game threat. It's potentially a great landing spot for him.

Yep...needs a 10-15 carry/game situation with 5 pass targets...he’ll shine.

Is 800,000$ worth it to you?

I think in KJ's situation, it was a very smart decision. The way Gus uses his running backs, he wouldn't have made it through the grind of another season, and possibly could have ended up lower or undraftable due to injury concerns. Coming out now, he gets a great payday to provide him with cusion, and the opportunity to carry the ball a healthy amount, without being run into the ground so early in life. 

Bubba should have cleaned up his act this off-season and tried to get back in good graces with Gus. He could have shined this year, and he has all the tools to be a  top 10 running back in the league if he would have played this right.

man, I love me some KJ! I hope he (and the others) kill it in the NFL. What a gem the Lions got - great ambassador, fierce competitor, and the hardest worker. He won’t settle.

Yes, but alabama's punter was selected in the fifth round  by GB.
