Well articulated, HB. The Williams "incident" seemed like a body-blow to the fanbase. He was a supposed to be a major point of excitement. Then, it was a bit of a double-down on the downers when the follow-on stories around Williams didn't rebound to the positive.
The draft was a polar opposite to last year. Rather than grabbing the media darlings and being lauded, they grab unexpected picks and get ridiculed. It's never a fun feeling when it has to be explained to you why these are actually good picks. I am a little comforted that the consensus seems to be that they were good players, just taken "too early" as if any of the pundits knows what all 32 team's draft boards look like.
Anyway, can't wait to learn that Dan and Brad really ARE the smartest guys in the room and Lions have the first class of 6 co-rookies of the year.
