The Lions are going to be next years most improved teams and are going to surprise a lot of people

By the way Whisenhunt said there were some very enticing offers to trade down from 26 but they stuck there cause they really wanted Williams

Really? I thought Kevin smith was a pretty good every down back...

Best can't play every down he's not durable enough but on turf in the right situations he can be a big play guy. Very good receiver too.

Just had real problems staying healthy at Cal.

Very happy for the kid though overcame a very scary fall that ended his junior season.

Yeah, I like him...I thought Detroit is just a strange place for him to land, and even stranger that they traded up for him.

I guess when you see the success of the two back system with the 2nd back being the reggie bush-type, it makes some sense...

I think they're desperate for some big play guys.

They said he had a spectacular pro day

Best will be a Beast but i still think Detroit would've been better off keeping their picks and getting more value in more places especially their D.

I think we did the right thing.... We need to really stuff the run well if our games are going to be tighter than in previous years.

This pick could be looked at as our response to the 2 Offensive lineman in San Francisco and Okung in Seattle.

IMO we made the right call. Because there really isn't anyone in Dan Williams ballpark that has these abilities.

ESPN has had a pretty awful night. Gruden was just accidentally on saying "it's a crazy league...a lot of dumb @$$ coaches".

You can just see how he owns Offensive lineman. He is just knocking of 330 pound monsters and running through them. Indy got a good player

BTW, I loved the primetime format. Lotsa fun.

Do it on a friday night next time, though. Maybe do rounds 2-3 on Saturday night and the rest on Sunday.
