[UofAZ420]

I will hold my comments on this situation, as most of you already know my thoughts on Mayhew.

I am just happy most everyone on PSD is finally coming around and realizing Mayhew is probably going to fail because he is too stubborn/set in his ways and doesn't have the credentials previous to coming to DET to act this way.

Expect a **** draft.

If that happens we can all agree he is a millen clone

If we stay at 5 and pick someone, it will likely be a DE LB LT or CB. Can't go wrong with either....we need all.

Hired by Millen to complete is unfinished work

With the 5th pick in the 2013 NFL draft, the Detroit Lions select Star Lotulelei...
With the 36th pick in the 201 NFL draft, the Detroit Lions select Robert Woods...

I can see it now

Depending on how FA goes and if they move Suh to DE that isn't a bad first 2 rounds. Actually, it's one I was thinking about when Woods went pro.

That's not bad of a DLine though. Scrap the wide 9 and that front 4 could be dominate.

[****ed in DET]

I just fell in love with drafting a DT at 5.

[driz]

Give me Ray Lewis to occupy every position in the entire front office.

[JWO35]

If we draft a DT with the 5th pick, I'm trying out for the lions as a Secondary player because it would be clear they don't give a **** who's back there...

[Slug3]

So are we going WR and RB in the first 2 rounds with a chance of a DT?

Yes

And a QB (Denard) in the 3rd.

5-11 here we come!

I don't think Mayhew is that dumb. Perhaps his ego got the best of him last year and he thought he had a better eye for secondary talent than most which is why he felt he could draft players later on and be successful.

I'm hoping he learned from that mistake and will not ignore the GAPING holes on this roster that he has built. He says BPA and thats because we have some needs on both sides of the ball. In the top 3 rounds, it would not be terrible if we addressed the following positions:

RB, WR, G, C
or
DE, OLB, MLB, S, CB

I highly doubt he goes WR, RB, DT like some of you are suggesting. The BPA would work if a top 15 RB was sitting there at pick #37. Thats what BPA means.

I think with our top 3 picks we address the D big time. At least I hope so.
