Lions' draft

Not a bad draft, but what do the Lions have against offensive linemen? Except for a brief period between 2000-2003, they seem to shy away from linemen. Rounds 6 and 7 are a good example: three picks, and they opt for 2 DEs and a WR? Would have like to see some hogmollies in there.

Like the first 5 picks; Williams is a stud - I would be surprised if Charles Rogers starts a game next year, even if he is healthy. The kid from Connecticut is impressive (caught a few UConn games on Thursday night ESPN and this kid has mobility, a good arm, a good head on his shoulders and is a competitor).

Actually looking forward to this season. Seems like some talent is lining up for the Lions to start making a run at the playoffs.
