Around SBN: Dissecting Nick Diaz's Positive Drug Test

NFL Draft

This isn't really eagles related, but football related.  I know over the past few weeks whenever I've heard about the draft, the question the analysts are asking is what should the Lions do with the number one overall pick.  I think this would be a pretty good question to debate on here.  It may have been discussed and I forgot, but why not do it again anyways a few days prior to the draft.  We've all played GM for the eagles lately...what do you do if you're the lions?

 

The most likely things the Lions are to do is to draft a franchise QB, namely Stafford.

Other possibilities are to take a top flight OT to anchor the line for years to come and prevent any high price QB from being mauled from his blind side. 

 

What would you do?  Other options include trading down and getting more picks.  God knows the lions have a hole at pretty much every position, so multiple high picks in this draft and next year seems like a logical move.  Also, the chance of getting a bust in that number one spot is always looming...and is quite expensive.

Go back a couple months and trade for Matt Cassell. Then take Eugene Monroe with the 1st pick. Not sure what they were thinking.

I think they should draft a tackle

they have Culpeper and Drew Stanton that they could give a chance also I’m not sold on Stafford or Sanchez. I doesn’t matter who is trowing it if they are on there ass all game
