After this week game against the Titans their schedule gets brutal they better do something quick fast and hurry
Yeah but I’m sorry zadarius smith isn’t enough we need more Brad needs to let some first rounders go they are glorified 2nds and if staffrord to Vikings is real that’s not good man
I can’t believe Crosby doesn’t want to play for his hometown team and win a ring. Makes no sense.
They want to much for Maxx. There’s no way we give them that much. We need Teir 2 who are still good players. I’m with you Jeff. That’s who I was thinking. We have been lacking in the Edge position. And now we are screwed.
I don't think that Crosby doesn't want to come. I think that Crosby doesn't want his teammates to think that he wants to be anything other than what he is (a Raider) in case the deal doesn't get done and he has to play with them knowing he wanted to leave and become a 🦁
I think it will be smith and walker
Smitty would help Josh paschal who to his credit did get a sack against the Vikings.they just paid Alim McNeil almost top of the market money for a D Tackle . What the lions need at this point in the season is a guy or two who can consistently get pressure.and keep contain against Quarterbacks especially mobile ones . The cheifs best pass rusher is Chris jones a D tackle in the days before Hutch the lions best pass rusher was Suh . The problem is in order for that to work you need the edge rushers to be getting pressure and sacks occasionally.
I'm just worried if we wait too long, people are going to get snatched up and then we no longer have options. We end up getting stuck with what we can get.
WHAT ABOUT JJ WATT FOR A YEAR
OR TWO. I THINK HE WOULD HELP
FILL THE VOID WITHOUT HUTCH.
Smith and the dude from the titans and we smooth
Holmes will find some one nobody saw!
Lions are 0 and 6 against the titans so there is a chance its a trap game . Dont ever underestimate your opponents
Azeez Ojulari would be so good on the lions
"I want to win" and "I want to be a Raider" are opposing ideas.
I think Crosby is still an option, he is saying everything he needs to say. If says he wants to be in Detroit, and doesn't get traded, he looks bad. If he says, he wants to stay put for life but it is a business, as he did. His bases are covered.
Next option, Keion White is probably the next best option, than Za'Darius. Just based on age.
What if the Lions went and traded for a Za’Darius Smith and Landry from the Titans
I'll be happy with Zadarius Smith 💯
Smith also is familiar with the NFC NORTH… Can't hurt
Harold Landry from the titans after whooping this Sunday offer them a 3rd or 4th round pick
The fun thing to do in the right thing to do are never the same thing. Miles Garrett has always been the best option here. He's younger he's more productive he's faster he's stronger. I've been saying this from the start of Hutchinson's injury. It's Miles Garrett or bust
Latest is Lions are trying to get Smith AND Garrett
You are a punk. Ladarius Smith would be an acceptable second part of the package..but 32 years old with falling production….why kind of an asshole are you??? We need to get superior talent – NOW. Settling by settling will screw up the entire process. YOU are the reason the Lions have failed all these years. that loser mentality has to end….
What is he supposed to say? If he said, "Move me," and they couldn't, Maxx would have a rough road with his time in LV. As it pertains to the fans
Chiefs did what winners do.. Trade for someone That can help em… Practice squad mfs isn't itttt
So he says he wants to win now, not rebuild. Now he says he is staying with raiders. So. I guess he doesn't want to win
Maxx knows his comments about wanting to play for the Lions caused this media frenzy, so he’s saying what he should say considering he’s still a Raider. He had to get out there and say something and it wasn’t gonna be “yes, i wanna play for the Lions” 😂. Don’t think for a second he wouldn’t really wanna play for the Lions. He’s done everything under the sun both directly and indirectly to indicate he wants to play in Detroit! 💯
32 year old DE… No thank you
We need Smith and Keon White.
It was a fun thing, bro. i tried to do it too. It made 2 much sense. Im like F Maxx. Let him keep his "loyal" ass in Vegas and continue to lose. Tom Brady, Bill Bells, fucking Terry Bradshaw aren't going to change that. Live and retire as an NFL player and not a Champ, a hometown champ..
I am hoping z.smith, and Cooper Kupp,we can afford both and still pull off another big play defensive guy , preferably in the back field
Honestly I think smith and a young guy like chase young to pair with chase in the future is the way I would go
As per Campbell last week, he was looking for 270 lb edge. Thus, Crosby at 255 lbs was NEVER in consideration. Crosby sent all the signals that he wanted to play for Lions, in many different ways! Once he learned that is not going to happened, now again he is " Raiders for life"; a " grapes are sour" scenario!!!!!
Z. Smith and his 'projected' 4 sacks… Meh
But on a positive note – I'm intrigued by the CYBER HEATER add in this video
Of course he’s going to say this publicly but his agent makes the decision not him.
Jeffery Simmons and Harold Landry in Tennessee's fire sale
This season is a wrap if this is brads move smh
Can someone just go to Allen park and make brad pick up Crosby or Miles? Fuck already!
Memberships are back!!!
Not really a big deal. Hopefully a 1 year deal.
I'm back!!!
I heard we get Garrett and Smith and the Browns get 2025 1ST 2ND 2026 2ND AND 5TH PLUS HENDON HOOKER, and a condition 2027 5th that can be a 2nd if the Lions make it to the Superbowl in two years???? Huh…. I guess we will see!,
Nah… he wants to come home but doesn't want to alienate the Raider fans & the team that took a chance on him.
We would have vilified Barry and Calvin if they had these type of rumors and he didn't say that he wanted to stay a Lion for life.
wait wait what do you expect him to say??? this team sucks and i want a trade? i wouldnt want him on my team if he said ANYTHING other than what he said. he has team mates.
Why not Fredrickson? From Cincy?
ZaDarius and JJ Watt
What about trey hendrickson?
I’d love max crosby. But I’d also love to trade Jackson like for walker.
Brad is not making a trade!!! He is an elite director of college scouting in the roll of a GM. He is great at that! But had he ever made an impact move when the pressure has been on?
Smith doesn’t add anything to this team just another role player. Although I never believed Crosby was coming here because of his price he still could Crosby never said he doesn’t want to be a Lion all he said is he wants to be a Raider for life but he doesn’t have any control. His exact words. What is he supposed to say he’s a loyal man! Zadarius Smith isn’t the solution he only has 4 sacks while next to Miles Garrett and he’s on the back end of his career. We need someone that can demand the attention of offense’s like Hutch had and Smith isn’t even close to that.
Given who the Lions have to pay I'm the coming years with Hutch, Branch, Kerby, and Jamo, they should get Zadarious Smith and Josh Uche on rentals. That would plug holes at the edge position and give them a shot at winning the super bowl
