Who The Hell Is Gosder Cherilus?

This is just embarassing. The last thing this team needs is MORE draft picks. As you know I am always beating the drum to beef up the O-line but I haven't read anything about thsi guy and judging by the analysts reaction, neither have they.

Take me now Lord..............

Go Lions!

Okay, I don't blame everyone for freaking out on this pick.  However, I like it. 

First, he was projected as a late first round pick so it is not like he is not talented.  Second, he is supposed to be nasty in the trenches.  This draft is all about Coach Rod, and this guy is the type of guy he wants.  You will get 100% from this guy on every down.  He moved from Haiti to the US when he was 14, so he knows how blessed he is to play the game and it shows.  My logic is that Coach Rod would rather have a guy like this than a slightly more talented guy that is lazy and takes plays off.  Gee, can we think of a few DL and OL ex-Lions players that fit that description?  I remember when the Lions moved up to take OL Aaron Rodgers and the analysts raved about it.  Sure he was 300 lbs and could dunk a basketball, but he was a tub of laziness on the field that never really did anything.   I think Coach Rod is really trying to change the attitude on this team...   so I say Gosder will be loved by all when it is all said and done!

Yes, I'm drinking the kool-aid.  But hey, I need something to look forward to this season!

Seriously.

Hey, maybe this guy is the real deal. I'm not going to pretend to be an expert on this guy and act like I have been watching tape on all of these players but I would really be surprised if any of the other 31 teams had this kid in their top 17 players to snag.

The fact that NE took Mayo only makes this more painful. Go knows if they think he is good, he will most likely be a perrenial pro bowler.

I wouldn't be surprised if they took a punter next.

Come on Lions! Get it together dammit!

Preach on.........Preach on.
