Detroit Lions: The Best 30 Draft Picks in Franchise History.
SideLionReport

Horrible list. I stopped when I saw Charlie batch at 24. Bad franchise but off the top of my head I can think of 50 guys better than him. No Schmidt and Alex Karras .. not even on the list.

I see Y.A. Tittle not on the list. HOF. Might not have played for Detroit but he was drafted by them.

I was thinking the same Mitch. Those two Schmidt and Karras and one of my favorite all time Lions Yale Lary.

Gotta read the fine print Mitch...the intro says the best picks since the Super Bowl Era so they're only looking at drafts from 1966 until present. Schmidt, Karras, and Tittle all drafted before that time.
