It’s one thing for fans to be optimistic about a team’s draft class. Fans tend to skew things positive, even a fan base that is—let’s admit it—as jaded as Detroit Lions fans. Case in point, despite a 38 percent approval rating prior to the 2020 NFL Draft, Bob Quinn managed to pull in a draft class that is currently pulling in a B grade or higher by 86 percent of Lions fans.
And while I trust some of these fans to be as objective as possible, sometimes it takes an outsider’s view to be a little more grounded.
