Wow...if the Lions could get Burress and the #11 pick I think that would be a huge steal. They could draft Jackson at #11 and go with someone like Dansby in the second round. I'd do that trade in a heartbeat if I were Detroit.

As we inch closer and closer to the draft, I can't help but be excited. I really have no idea what we are going to do, unlike most years. There's about a million and two different ways we could go about this.

I still think Roy Williams is the pick if he's available and we don't trade. His speed makes him more valuable than even Larry Fitzgerald.

Tom Kowalski is stating that the Lions first choice is Roy Williams. If he is not available, then they will explore the trade down. If there are no takers for a trade then the pick will be either be Kellen Winslow or Sean Taylor (leaning more towards Winslow).

If the Lions do make a trade and pick up a 3rd round pick, that pick could be traded to the Dallas Cowboys for Larry Allen, offensive guard.

Partied hard last night at Eastern Michigan U. and got home a 5 in the morning... Had a very good time and suprisingly I am up right now, I guess that's what draft excitement will do to you. I supposed the Lions will be making their pick in about an hour and a half.

I wanted Sean Taylor, now that he's off the boards I say Roy Williams all the way.

Can't really gor wrong with either Williams or Winslows talent, but Winslow is a nutcase.

[MLKG]

We trade down AND get Roy Williams! That works for me.

[jvanbusk]

Roy Williams is going to be great for this team. Plus, we have flexibility with those two second rounders.

It'll be intersting to see if Millen is done. It might still be possible use both of those second rounders and trade up for Stephen Jackson or Kevin Jones.

I'd be happy with that. Moreso for KJ, but still happy with either.

Well, they traded both 2nd to Kansas City at #30 to take Kevin Jones. I was lobbying for a trade up to #20 for Steven Jackson but I can't complain.

Their draft board read coming into today
1. Roy Williams
2. Trade Down
3. Kellen Winslow
4. Sean Taylor

The Browns were trying to trade with NYG for Winslow so I guess they were surprised they didn't take him. Instead they traded with us, we got their 2nd round pick and the guy were were targeting all along.

Then we traded our 2nd and their 2nd to Kansas City for Kevin Jones, who was the #1 RB when he entered. I'm shocked he slipped so far. I think a 2nd and 3rd would have done it, which would have been nice because Ben Troupe will be there still in Round 2. Great job by M&M so far though getting us two top offensive weapons at their positions.

QB Joey Harrington
WR Charles Rogers
WR Roy Williams
RB Kevin Jones

Looks good to me! The Lions would have taken Roy Williams over Rogers had they both come out the same year. I'm very satisified with the day so far.

EDIT: This year's 2nd and 4th, and next year's 5th! GREAT JOB MATT MILLEN!

I actually liked Kevin Jones more than Steven Jackson, awesome job.

Lions grab a solid LB with the Cleveland pick: Teddy Lehman from Oklahoma. He has won the Big 12 defensive player of the year award and Dick Butkus award as best linebacker. I almost wish we picked Ben Troupe and gave Joey an awesome outstanding supporting cast.

3rd round will still be tonight, and the Lions have a pick. Guys like Antwan Odom and Stuart S.-something (safety from Purdue - long last name) are falling.
