Now the refs will absolutely stifle your defensive players regardless of how good they are and your only real hope is to have an offense that can keep up with the other team. |
Still came down to Defense on the last play of the Super bowl!  _________________ You have to stand bye your convictions, sometimes you might stand alone but when your proven right its a great feeling!

| Quote: | | What should happen: So it's a passing league. The Lions must find a running back to take the pressure off Stafford and a passing game that carries too much of this offense. So find one in the draft or sign one in free agency. Just do it. San Francisco didn't win the Super Bowl because the 49ers couldn't run five yards, and take a hint, Detroit. This draft is deep in offensive linemen, so I'd like to see the Lions take a tackle reasonably high and groom him to take Backus' place. Most of all, I'd like to see them find a quality pass-rushing end like Bjoern Werner or a quality cornerback like Dee Milliner with their first draft pick. Milliner probably won't be there at the fifth spot. But if he is, the Lions should jump for him. As I said, when you play in a division with Rodgers, you'd better figure out how to stop the pass. The Lions haven't, and look no further than defense for why this club wilted. |
Couldn't agree more! |

How the hell couldn't you agree more? You just said you wanted the first 3 picks to all be defense, the quote you just posted advocated for taking an OT high and a RB to take pressure off the passing game (which given previous comments and available RB's in this draft) would indicate that would likely have to be a mid round (3 or 4) pick or higher. _________________
