I trust Holmes but sometimes I wonder. We cut to WR, when we are thin there, including Peoples-Jones and are supposed to add Tim Patrick after Denver cut him. He hasn't played the last two years due to injury, wasn't anything special when he did play and he's 30 turning 31 in November. I feel like we need to try and trade for a WR.

As expected, we signed Tim Patrick. We also signed Allen Robinson II who had signed in the off season with the Giants but was cut. Peoples-Jones was signed to the practice squad. I am a bit worried about our WR depth but maybe this means Jameson Williams is ready to roll this year and will be a solid if not even electric player. Also, Isaiah Williams might have a chance to be a really good WR and is likely 4th on the chart with a chance at 3rd. He had a pretty good preseason. We will start seeing how things play out in 12 days.

With the 49ers signing Aiyuk to an extension they are the only team this season that has 8 players earning an average of at least $15 million. The wild thing is their starting QB is not one of them.

The Lions currently have only four healthy WRs on their roster. I sure hope they stay healthy. Turns out the two they signed were for the practice squad. Now, it might be done till they get caught up with our playbook and then they will be moved to 53-man roster. Either way, it is an interesting situation going into the season. Just 8 more days till the season/home opener. #OnePride

A KC Chiefs executive said they could not have won back-to-back SBs without the best fans in the NFL. Not sure how the Lions fans helped them but ok.

WE DID WHAT BALTIMORE COULDN'T DO AND BEAT THEM IN THEIR OWN STADIUM ON OPENING NIGHT (even though Baltimore took us to the woodshed later on last year, LOL). FTP AND ON SUNDAY FTR (and Stafford's annoying wife).

I missed the ending of the game last night as I was headed home from work. Watched the replay on NFL Network at work earlier. If any Raven fans want to bitch about the call on the last play, not sure if any are but just saying, they should look to the play right before it. A WR wide open and Lamar missed him. That is what is keeping me from putting Lamar in the elite category. His passing touch needs improvement. He does that and he is right there with Mahomes.

Looks like the Lions moved Tom Kennedy to the active roster. That gives us 5 WR going into tomorrow night's game. That is good. Hopefully we have no injuries but feel better with a bit of depth.

I really hope Jameson Williams finally breaks out this season and lives up to the hype and draft capital we spent on him. Not only did we use the 12th overall pick to get him, but we traded up to that spot. I look at Christian Watson who the Packers took 22 picks later who while not lighting up the league has had a better two first years than Williams. The one positive is Williams is 2 years younger than Watson. So, he is the same age as Watson was during his rookie season. There is time. It needs to start this season. Hopefully this day later tonight. #OnePride
