From the NFL draft last weekend, who is most likely to turn out to be the biggest positive surprise for the Lions?

LOL, really VIP on a Lions thread?
It's gotta be Chris Greenwood. Developed late, but never got the chance to shine at the D1 level (he went from Northwood to EMU, but then would have had to sit out due to a credit issue, so he went all the way down to Albion). Also, he only performed at the U of M pro day, so only those who were there even know who he is.

If schwartz was smart he'd cut Dantonio a fat check to consult when they are thinking about drafting a defensive back
We've got depth. We've got numbers.

Has to be Jonta Green the CB from New Mexico State, as a junior he was replaced in the lineup by a freshman in 2010 after getting beat like a drum. Had a good 2011 and has good speed, ---maybe he is a special teams guy.

Bill, come on. You ask a question and then go VIP with some posts. Is MSU recruiting some of the Lions, now?

The Albion kid and Travis Lewis - the 3rd OU kid they took. he started for four years and led them in tackles. At the very least he's going to be the new Zach Follett. With coaching I think the Albion kid will start in the NFL and will end up better than the Rajun Cajun we took in the 3rd round - though he has potential too. Frankly, I love the draft....first 4 rounds all value picks that are NFL guys, Then load up on CB/LB prospects and see who shakes out.

Seriously, this. Ask a question and then make your responses VIP.

No, no, no. The Pistons took him. His name was Walter Sharpe.

I think the sleeper pick was Mayhew. He fell asleep after the 1st round. No other explanation for all the shitty picks.

I wasn't crazy about the Broyles pick but we have no depth at WR after the top 3.
Calvin: most talented player in the nfl. Takes a beating because he's fearless and a massive target.
Burleson: aging vet, still solid but not a difference maker without a true #1 across from him.
Young: flashed some awesome potential. Likely the #2 guy now if he's healthy and not taking dumb penalties.
There's literally nothing after those 3. The rest of the draft I have no idea how you could complain about. You're not getting Patrick Peterson in rd 4 unless you get an absolute Tom Bradyesque steal.

Lions should go after my boy Dallas Clark, who's currently a free agent. Would be a good addition at Tight End.

As far as those penalties go, knowing what we now know about the Saints, is anyone else kinda letting all that stupid shit from the Sunday Night game slide?
I am because it was so out of character for some of the guys, and we now know the opponent was actively trying to hurt them.

I really like the selection of Greenwood. He is 6'2" with a sub 4.4 40.
Hopefully he can get use to NFL speed quickly as he didn't play for a DI school.

Lions already have 2 TE's better than Clark in this point in Clark's career.
