In regards to Detroit's great success acquiring talent in the recent years, I keep I keep hearing the name Martin Mayhew. Is he the GM? Our former CB form Gibbs I era?

Yup, Mayhew is their GM. I think we may be over-valuing Shaun Hill though.

Good for Martin. He has to be one of the younger GM's in the league....and a wonderful human being! (in my best Cossel voice)

I know I may be over-valuing Hill, but stranger things have happened.
He is in a new system and throwing to some really good young receivers, on a good team. I am just saying, don't count him out. He has a chance to become a good QB. I think what I am trying to say is I like what i saw of him when he played for Stafford earlier this year in Detroit. He looked more then adequate and he is not afraid to throw that ball.. I guess the question is can he sustain it over the course of a season.

Yeah I'm just saying he's a 30 year old perennial backup/part-time starter so I don't think the Lions should think in terms of well we can build around Shaun Hill if we can't around Stafford
