| Sounds like JV will be on the trade market soon. I want the Tigers to blow it up (since they are still determined to try and win without a bullpen) but I wish they would hold onto Miggy and JV and dump everything else. Those are their best players but I feel we are not likely to get good value given their contracts. Will be interesting to see where this goes but I would expect JD, Upton, and maybe Kinsler all gone in the next few weeks. |

I'd be okay going into full tank mode. I don't see anything except a dumpster fire in our immediate future... Trade everyone, get everything you possibly can for them.
Like you said, the contracts are going to be a major hindrance... Or will at the least lessen our return... but still. I don't see us going anywhere, and I'd like to see JV win a championship somewhere. |

I also want to go into full tank mode. I'd probably hold onto Fulmer, but everything else can go for the right price.
I want LA to make an offer for JV. I think he would waive his no trade clause to go there, and I'm sure Kate Upton wouldn't mind. It would sorta-kinda be a bummer letting him go as a fan and all, but I would rather rebuild the farm. I think JV could help LA make a serious run. It just seems like the most logical fit for him in my mind. It's probably too logical.
With that said, I don't think they'll move Miggy.

I've seen him mentioned as a top 10 TE, because of a couple receiving stats, but he's honestly not even top 20. |
Where does Enron rate among pass-catching TEs?

Not sure what metrics you use to measure his position among pass catchers. His receptions and yards in 2016 were in the top 10 I believe, but the guy only had one touchdown and a slew of drops.
I think there is an argument for him statistically, but watching the games, I can't say he was among the top ten as far as impact.
In no particular order, here are 10 guys I'd rather have catching passes in Detroit:
Gronk, Bennett, Henry, Kelce, Cook, Graham, Olsen, Reed, Eifert, Brate.
I am not suggesting this list is perfect, but I'd say all of these excepting Henry and Brate are no-brainers. |

Will the new update bring drama back to the Lions Den? If not, then I'm not interested.

You can @ people in the new update and you can ignore people too. I think you'll be able to find a way to cause some drama that way.
