Quotes 

• “I think day 3 picks in this draft have even less value than they normally do.” - Ash Thompson 

• “But if there is a prospect that seems like the perfect candidate for the Lions, Zach Frazier is it. Every report on his toughness, background, and physicality screams Lions, the questions seem to center around value at No. 29.” - @ErikSchlitt 

Question of the Day: Will Brad Holmes shock fans this weekend, and if so, how?
