There will be plenty of storylines to follow as we (hopefully) get updates from Allen Park throughout the weekend. There’s a handful of undrafted free agents (UDFAs) to follow, some tryouts to keep an eye on, and, of course, there’s the Lions 2019 NFL Draft class to follow.So today’s Question of the Day is:Which Lions rookie are you most excited to hear about at rookie minicamp this week? My answer: It has to be Lions second-round pick Jahlani Tavai. While we won’t be able to get a good idea of just how good the Hawaii linebacker is based on a few practices with fellow rookies, I am very interested in what the team’s expectation for him is. Will he be a middle linebacker? Will he be an edge defender? Hawaii used Tavai all over the place Womens Darius Slay Jersey , and maybe that’s the Lions’ plan for him, too. Either way, I want to see where Tavai lines up this weekend, and I’d love to hear reports that he stuck out among his fellow rookies.Other players I’m interested in hearing about include UDFA guard Beau Benzschawel, sixth-round running back Ty Johnson, and fourth-round pick Austin Bryant.

At the time Tavon Wilson Jersey White , people scoffed at the idea of rewarding Stafford with such a high contact, but just two years later it doesn’t look so bad.Now Stafford sits at the eighth-highest average salary among quarterbacks, directly behind guys like Jimmy Garoppolo and Kirk Cousins. Screenshot via SpotracHis ranking will undoubtedly continue to drop as players like Jared Goff and Dak Prescott get extensions. So, that brings today’s question:Is Matthew Stafford still worth his contract?My answer: Absolutely. Look, Stafford is far from perfect, but it’s also just the cost of doing business in today’s NFL. When guys like Alex Smith and Joe Flacco are still pulling in a yearly average around $23 million Kerry Hyder Jersey , I see no problem with paying Stafford an average around $27 million.Also, with the salary cap only continuing to go up, his percentage of the cap will just be going down annually.Your turn.
