Lions Draft Needs
Urgent: A franchise middle linebacker and franchise strong side linebacker to go along with weak side linebacker Ernie Sims are needed. A franchise left offensive tackle is needed to move Jeff Backus from offensive tackle to left guard.
Strong: An all-around defensive end to pair with right defensive end Cliff Avril, a franchise corner, a dominant strong safety, and a great road-grader offensive guard are all needed.
Moderate: A quarterback is needed in case neither Dan Orlovsky or Drew Stanton are the answer.
Nice to Have: Talented players all over the roster.
Wildcard: Is either Dan Orlovsky or Drew Stanton the quarterback of the future?
