I agree with all your comments. I like both pick ups. Apparently, we’re still on the hunt for a third WR, a guard, and a QB.

Interestingly, most mock drafts had us picking Miller or Thomas Davis, both of which I assume are out of the question now. So, do we go D-line (Dan Cody, perhaps excellent value @ #10) or an OTackle, the guy from Fla State.

Kennedy will make receivers think twice when they hear footsteps.

My number one wish for the draft is a 1st round selection of Derrick Johnson, should he slide to the Tenth spot. This would give the Lions a ton of depth on their defense. Also, Earl Holmes is getting on the downside of his career so the plan for Teddy to move to the middle (with added bulk and ability to meet the contact at the point of attack without getting blown up!) would allow Boss Bailey to play the strong side and Johnson on the weak side. Dirty Davis and Alex Lewis would be able to continue to bolster the defense. I would also not be opposed to the selection of another CB or DE in the draft.
