And he's the face of the turn around his greatness and work ethic, plus his leadership is the beginning of the brand new lions. And he's still only 23😮 can't wait to see how dominating he is with his grown man strength
Keep signing our cornerstone pieces at their value. This beats the heck out of paying Trey Flowers (free agent) his $90 million (potential $23 million cap hit his final year if he had not returned to the Patriots). Penei is definitely worth more than the $5 million a year over the Flowers contract (based on final year). The approach of the Lions front office is awesome and long awaited for Lions fans.
I like Rico's take that Detroit might look for an OT to replace Decker when his contract is completed. Detroit has a dominate OL because they spent first round draft choices on these guys and added a new first round pick to the group (Decker, Ragnow, Sewell, and Zeitler are all first rounders). If Detroit drafts well and develops these selections, they will need and deserve a huge payday when their contracts end. Look at the other first rounders on that offense if they reach their potential (Goff, Gibbs, and Williams).
I was wary of these re-signings this entire time and now i couldnt b happier. Its odd. My entire perspective changed instantly. We locked up studs before they could even test a market. This is brand new lions stuff, top tier franchise stuff.
At 3:30 Rico calls his shot that Goff will be signed before the show ends. Literally like 10 minutes later reports are the Lions aren't close to a deal with Goff. Hilarious.
The new standard. Anyone who walks into that locker room !ATTENTION! this is the standard that you are expected to live up to. If not thank you have a nice day.
Great moves it takes away the splash of the bears having two top ten picks tomorrow ppl will still be talking about these contracts and whatever player the lions acquire from the first round if they pick someone
Sewell's deal won't kick in for another two years. He's gonna be on his rookie contract for another two years. They can get Decker signed for two years.
As a Dolphins fan at the time of that draft, I remember when Miami was up and took Waddle at 6, I said that whoever the Lions take at 7 is going to the Hall of Fame, just watch. Seems to be working out for them, fit him for the gold jacket! Of course it helps that teams reach for QBs (Wilson, Lance), draft TEs (Pitts) and leave the best player on the board to drop to a team who doesn't even have to move up to acquire him. Some good fortune for Detroit, good for them! That, and as a Dolphins fan, I'm always convinced that Miami will make the wrong choice. Hope the new Lions LT enjoys Canton.
At this point the unsexy pick is the norm around here, and im with it. Make the strength of the team stronger and with the uncertainty of T.D. and Frank going forward please take an OLineman, we keep Jared clean and back to the playoffs we go. And not just for Jared but for the future of our team.
Deal came early...until you realize they picked up his 5th yr option And the big money doesn't start till 2026. He's fully under contract till 2029 and he'll only be 28 years old.
How is this organization related to the one in the last 60 years? It isn't! Praise Shella Ford! Reality is if you don't pay your good players you don't keep them. This is how you have to roll if you want to win.
Hey Valenti and Rico Great Show. Valenti you say Sewell’s contract is too large for a Right Tackle. ……. If we had a Lefty at QB the blind side would be RT. Is Hooker right or left handed? I know, I want Goff too…… but what we don’t know??
In 3 years, the Lions new regime has turned a laughingstock into a model organization... Everything from how to build a team to how to treat your players and get the most out of them.
Think about this…What message is the lions front office saying to the league and players? They are flat ass talking about the lions in a way they have not since I have been alive. Circa 1977
Penei sewell is unquestionably the best T in the league and projects to be for the rest of that contract. Amon ra is also a great player, BUT nobody in the world including amon ra st brown and his family thinks Amon Ra is the best WR in the league
@@wolverinefangowings If i were a Lion fan i would have no problem with the Amon ra contract at all. I’m just correcting the record when Mike called him the best receiver in the league.
Both of them get paid and we get a inside the den tonight. What a way to host the draft Detroit!! Making fans happier than we’ve ever been.
Oh damn they actually dropping it within reason of a hype video and not 2 weeks later? Lol props
I remember when Sewell got drafted ESPN analysts said he was the player in that draft most guaranteed to be a Hall of Famer. He's well on his way!
My two favorite current Lions got paid. What a great day.
Mike's point about getting Sewell nailed down now as he's just going to get much more expensive as we go, can't be understated!!!
Same with St Brown and Goff.
Got to love it, two best players on the lions getting paid on the same day
Welcome to winning football. This is fun.
It's beautiful
Lions are for real, loving this!!
Peneii deserves this. Absolute stud
No one deserves that money for playing football. Having said that, he is our best player and may go down as the greatest lion ever
@@chevy4x466 Always one jealous hater
@@chevy4x466 market for the best tackle is the market for the best tackle. Thats like complaining about stock prices
@@chevy4x466 it's your opinion, and having stated that your opinion isn't going to stop pro athletes from getting pId handsomely
@@marsaliswhitelow4677 u r correct about that sir
Sewell and st brown are the true leaders of this offense great job Brad
Goff and Ragnow are leaders as well. Ragnow to me is still the heart of that line. Plays through injury.
Thank you for this take! Nice to hear this show support a love made by the organization. I love the positivity!
Best money the Lions ever spent!
Sewell is the best OT in the NFL!
And he's the face of the turn around his greatness and work ethic, plus his leadership is the beginning of the brand new lions. And he's still only 23😮 can't wait to see how dominating he is with his grown man strength

Never in my fandom have I watched an o lineman, but 58 just makes plays all day. Dude is such a beast. I love me some 58.
Another cornerstone for our football team. This is great news for Lions fans because this just another move that good organizations make.
I was wary of these re-signings this entire time and now i couldnt b happier. Its odd. My entire perspective changed instantly. We locked up studs before they could even test a market. This is brand new lions stuff, top tier franchise stuff.
This is crazy... people bitched about the fords never wanting to pay people and NOW are bitching about Sheila paying our stars.
These two signings sends a message to NFL players. You come to Detroit, you show grit and perform, you will get paid.
At 3:30 Rico calls his shot that Goff will be signed before the show ends. Literally like 10 minutes later reports are the Lions aren't close to a deal with Goff. Hilarious.
He ended up signing like a week after this so
Worth every… single… penny.
The new standard. Anyone who walks into that locker room !ATTENTION! this is the standard that you are expected to live up to. If not thank you have a nice day.
Great moves it takes away the splash of the bears having two top ten picks tomorrow ppl will still be talking about these contracts and whatever player the lions acquire from the first round if they pick someone
St brown will be the 4th-5th highest paid by next year . Great deal
Hell yea ..signing 2 future HOF players to deals is how to it done ..FORWARD DOWN THE FIELD !!!!
Sewell's deal won't kick in for another two years. He's gonna be on his rookie contract for another two years. They can get Decker signed for two years.
@@noah.conley No. St. Brown has one year left. Sewell has one year and a team option fifth. Maybe you should Google.
@@daviddawson3386 we cant expect spartan fans to competently use google
Plus it sets the floor for the WR and OT markets. With Lamb, Jefferson, and Aiyuk all due to get paid

Hutch is next and expect him to get paid a year early next spring
Sewell and ASB are total badasses. I think Sewell is the best player in the Lions. I think they rework Decker and give him another year secured.
Live both signings❤
Know what this means? It means we're getting some rookie offensive lineman in the second and 3rd rounds
I think they're going to pick the guy from Washington to play right tackle in the draft is here
At this point the unsexy pick is the norm around here, and im with it. Make the strength of the team stronger and with the uncertainty of T.D. and Frank going forward please take an OLineman, we keep Jared clean and back to the playoffs we go. And not just for Jared but for the future of our team.
29 and Taylor Decker for Arizona's 4, feed me fuaga at RT... 💕 you big deck.
and now Decker has been extended!
Deal came early...until you realize they picked up his 5th yr option And the big money doesn't start till 2026. He's fully under contract till 2029 and he'll only be 28 years old.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Reality is if you don't pay your good players you don't keep them. This is how you have to roll if you want to win.
I also love how someone finally realized it was really stupid to honor Billy Boy on the jerseys
Get ready for the trade up for Taliese Fauga, he plays whenever a starter is down for 2024, 2025 he’s ur RT while Penei slides to LT
Sewell and St Brown are my 2 favorite lions are locked in for a long time. Find better players for the price and the youth they still have… you won’t
Hey Valenti and Rico Great Show. Valenti you say Sewell’s contract is too large for a Right Tackle. ……. If we had a Lefty at QB the blind side would be RT. Is Hooker right or left handed?
I know, I want Goff too…… but what we don’t know??
Goff next and Hutch in a few years.
They could’ve given him partial ownership of the team and he’d still be underpaid lol
The Lions have put a decent product on the field. I wonder if the products will be productive this year.
What?😂😂
In 3 years, the Lions new regime has turned a laughingstock into a model organization... Everything from how to build a team to how to treat your players and get the most out of them.
Well, you now see why Detroit didn't go out and grab all those FA you wanted.
You have to pay your young core players, then build around them.
A steal
Think about this…What message is the lions front office saying to the league and players? They are flat ass talking about the lions in a way they have not since I have been alive. Circa 1977
Nice
When are they gonna pay Goff????
😅SO Wrong: Every1! 🦁
I just hope they don’t pay Goff
Penei sewell is unquestionably the best T in the league and projects to be for the rest of that contract. Amon ra is also a great player, BUT nobody in the world including amon ra st brown and his family thinks Amon Ra is the best WR in the league
And within a week he won't be paid like it. He just drove up the asking price for Jefferson, Ceedee, etc.
@@wolverinefangowings If i were a Lion fan i would have no problem with the Amon ra contract at all. I’m just correcting the record when Mike called him the best receiver in the league.
He’s top 3-5 no question . After lamb and JJ get paid he will be the 3rd highest paid
So glad we locked up Sewell
Detroit should trade out of the first round.
