    Get mahogany and Manu some reps in preseason. They can both be rotational players within this next year.

    Gotta understand about polys, family is the vibe. With Penei acting as older brother, and the Lions family vibe and how they show love and appreciation at all levels, that's the perfect scenario for guys like Manu and Vaki. If they've got the natural talent, the current Lions environment will take care of the rest, get them to the next level.

    The thing I like is that he not only has a fantastic O-Line coach, we also have many great O-Linemen to learn from. He can learn from Penei, Ragnow Deck and could get some reps vs Hutch Reader Alim etc so he could practice vs some good to pro bowl talent as well. Iron sharpens Iron, we got Iron, and coaches

    I don’t care how big he is, I would be scared if Manu had to step in this season or even the following season. Mahogany is in a much better position to step into the lineup if an injury occurs

      I agree. However, I think that manu can develop into a solid contributor within a year.

      He's a project going from UBC to the NFL is a quantum leap in competition, If he sits, gets stronger and works on his fundamentals he could be a solid to good RT year 2 with a tremendous upside. I think with us giving up a 3rd sort and drafting him with a 4th sorta puts him in a low round 2 pick type of value so I believe he's our post Decker slide Penei to LT and plug Manu to RT when Deck hangs it up guy.

      Apparently, he missed time in 23, either recovering from an injury or an injury in 23. I read teams were concerned due to that.

      It will depend on who improves. These are developmental players and the Lions are aging. There could be room for all of them if they improve enough to play.

    Manu is a risk of a draft pick and may not work out. Can the Lions get him coached up and make him an NFL level player? Maybe, and if they can, his upside is worth a risk. If any coach can help him Hank Fraley is that coach. Playing and learning from Sewell (Manu's idol) will get the most from Giovanni. The Lions have the team depth to take a gamble on a player like this. But he is a pick for the 2025 or 2026 Lions teams.

      Opposing NFL line speed & strength will be a revelation to him but his drive & athleticism, if what we are hearing about him is real, could make him helpful in year 1 & a starter in year 2.
