I like the Lions last 2 drafts alot, I said before I really think they will be in the playoffs in 2011.
Not really. We've given up on one of three, the draft, in the quest to improve at safety. I said that free agency was a crapshoot. You said that FA was only one way, that there were many. But there aren't. There are three, we've given up one one. That leaves two. If you discount one of those two, that leaves just a trade.
I wouldn't count on a fifth or lower round pick or an undrafted FA to step up and be a starter. It CAN happen (as it did with Bess) but you can't count on it happening.

Is cam thomas really still available? as well as Dezmon Briscoe and Reshad Jones or did I miss something?
Nolan Carroll (CB) Carroll is a big, strong athlete with great intangibles. He has a good combination of size, strength and athleticism for the position. Nolan is a tough, hardnosed competitor who needs to refine his secondary techniques. He is best in press man coverage, where he can jam and re-route receivers. Carroll is an intelligent player to grasp football concepts but lacks great natural instincts. He is a willing run support player but can be inconsistent making the sure open-field tackle. He possesses average ball skills and has missed several opportunities to make the interception. Carroll has tools to develop but needs time to improve his overall reactions in combination coverages.
****in NFL Network totally skipped over us with the damn commercials and Eric Berry piece. *******s!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
