    I am a ravens fan. Live in northern Virginia family is all from Baltimore. But let me tell you lions fans one thing, I hope more than anything you beat my ravens, and honestly wouldn’t be shocked to see the two of us in the Super Bowl together. As blasphemous as it sounds, I’d be happy to see you beat my ravens in a Super Bowl. The city of Detroit has earned and deserves this. Incredible people who are the last bastion of a real football city.

      The psychological way Brad Holmes has built this team needs to be studied. I know other teams are doing it. Philly is another with the Georgia boys for example. Having instant familiarity in new surroundings is huge. But beyond that, he drafts a lot of former captains. Those traits usually mean you will be self accountable. That’s why this culture has changed.

I agree his primary role will be as a core special teams player, but his trick/gadget play guy potential is huge too. Vaki will be my Jersey this year, now just gotta decide black or white is all.

    This is an A-, 91. Built the best offense, now building the best defense. The commissioner
    Could have drop off the trophy at the draft. Built a brick wall in last year draft, can't run. This year built a damn air force. No flying allow! I would be shocked if Detroit allowed over 250 passing yards a game on average this coming season. Great picks in rounds one and two. Moving into 4, great moves, if they work out. Picks in round six solid.

Many, including former teammate and Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly, consider him to be the greatest special teams player of all-time and believe that he should be in the Hall of Fame.
