Give me Dan Morgan over Beason all day

That’s a tough one. Id still put Beason just above Morgan or equal though. Different game same position. We need to draft a MLB though this draft. We’ve never not had a MLB from the draft(that was best in class). I’m not convinced they are gonna put Shaq in the middle even though he’ll probably be calling the defense this season. I see him calling from the OLB position. 
 

((that said I do think Shaq is going to ball out this season))

I hadnt been on the Simmons train, but what you just said makes a lot of sense.  We have always had a dominant MLB and it seems to be part of our identity

We've had an absolutely embarrassing amount of talent at MLB for such a young franchise. Sam Mills, Luke Kuechly, Jon Beason, Dan Morgan. That's one borderline HOFer (Sam Mills has been an HOF finalist), one highly probably HOFer (Luke), and two guys who had HOF talent but had their careers derailed by injuries (unfortunately a common theme among our MLB talent).

I love Rucker, but I’d put CJ above Rucker. 
 

are we doing this based on skills or stats with the team? I love Davis but Dwill and JStew both I think could all swap with Davis (although Dwill has burned his bridges here) 

as said earlier, we’ve had stupid level of talent at the LB position. Dan could and should have been a HoF if it wasn’t for injuries, same for Beason. 
 

Jake is basically my QB growing up, but Steve was a pretty good QB too for a short time for us.

It's basically just my personal opinion. I hard a hard time choosing between CJ and Ruck.  I went with Ruck because he had more tfl and more tackles in about the same amount of games played, which leads me to believe he was better vs the run.  CJ had more sacks, they were both fun to watch.  While Jake was QB, I always felt like Steve was a better QB and I felt like they did him wrong.  Jake went to a SB so kinda hard for me to put Steve ahead of him.

    • This is factually incorrect. He was a two time Pro Bowler with the Rams and in fact statistically he was better with the Rams in his best season there than he has been with the Lions(could change with this season). Some of his per game stats have creeped into being marginally better with the Lions but there have not been dramatic differences in his play, actually. The biggest reason that McVay and he ended up splitting was McVay didn't think he could win a title with Goff. TBH.....so far he was 100% correct. Stafford almost immediately won them a SB and Goff in a historic run was about 70% of the reason the Lions faltered in the NFC championship game. He missed critical throws all over the first half and throughout the second half that he normally wouldn't. He choked. So, until Goff actually does win a SB...McVay has been right.
    • they have the best defense they've had in a long time...probably the best in the reid/mahommes era.  but i think they are probably the most beatable they've been in a while as well. record doesn't exactly bear that out, but they just don't look as strong on offense as they usually do. lots of reasons for that, like trying to build chemistry with newer receivers, but right now they just aren't as frightening as they typically are. i mean they'll probably win tomorrow, but i don't see them as the strongest team in the AFC right now. 
    • He will likely remain unsigned the remainder of this season(barring someone being in a pure QB panic AND making poor decisions) largely due to the cost. I do think he will get multiple offers to be a backup QB and perhaps a couple to potentially start this offseason.  I will continue to beat the same horse over and over.....he should go to a successful team with an established starter. If I were him, go to somewhere like SF, LAR, etc. Somewhere with a successful QB coach and brilliant offensive mind and ALSO a set situation at QB. Ride the pine and adjust for a year or two. Chill and be around better culture. I would suggest the same for Bryce but he will be limited to wherever we can trade him.
