Trading up???

Also, I want Jordan or Ansah in the first, then Damontre moore. Don't draft a receiver dammit.

I wouldn't be completely opposed to a move like this if Moore or Werner are available in the second. I know it'd be tough for some people to swallow but given our lack of depth at the position I don't think it'd be the worst move we could make.
 
Both de spots need to be upgraded, olb, cb, rg, lt, c....nah.....not too many holes at all. And thats not including the stretch the field #2 wr and a dynamic te that this offense needs badly. 9 holes. 1 draft. Get to work mayhew!

We don't NEED an olb or center but it would certainly help. We could kill two birds with one stone drafting either b jones or shwenke and let them play guard for a year and pick someone up next year. Palmer is a nice backup for the time being. We NEED an ot, 2 de, a g, a corner and a wr.
 
The Lions have no business trading up. As much as I like Fisher, he is gone to KC #1. No one else is worth it but they are stupid enough to do it. If anything, hopefully they can trade down and get an extra pick because they need it. Funny how last years two Super Bowl teams (SF & Ravens) have 12 and 13 picks in this years draft. IF that doesn't tell you something, nothing will.

I expect Broyles and Burleson to be serviceable at WR so thats not a priority to me. But yeah at OLB we have a bunch of guys who can step in and potentially do well. You don't say upgrade before you even know what you have.

I agree multiple OL positions need to be replaced, and 2 DE. I think we can get away with Houstan, bentley, green, and florence (Idk if we have him anymore) at CB. DE, imo, is what really hurt our defense last year. No pressure from the ends with the DT position playing at such a high level is embaressing for them.

Serviceable is fine, but the NFL is about depth too. Good teams have it. If CJ were to ever go down you're telling me that you'd be ok with running Burelson and Broyles out there....with Thomas as the 3 and fuckin Scheffler as the 4 if needed?

I'm not. This team desperately needs a WR.
