End of the Day: Obviously it was a crazy first and second round, with all kinds of trades and unexpected things happening. The Lions did a great job, and potentially, this could be a big turning point for the organization. They now have a running games and a potentially superior passing game. Lehman fills a need, as he third guy. I would move Chris Cash to strong Safety and the third round pick to the nickel/dime spot.

The Bears did a good job, and their third round pick filled a need for someone explosive. The Harris and Williams selections fill the need at DT, though I'm sure Marriotti will rip them for not taking Stephen Jackson.


The Packers
I was shocked they didn't pick a DT or DE in the second or third. Obviously the McKenzie situation is the cloud hanging over everything they do, maybe they'll make a deal. Couch to the Packers seems like it will happen, because they had an opportunity to take Schaub and they didn't. The Sander pick was a need. Anyone who watched an Ohio St. game realized that he, and his leg, are an incredible weapon. He kills balls and can pin teams deep. The question will of course be, was a 3rd, and giving up a 5th and a 4th worth a punter? He will have pressure, but of any punter to come out of College in the last 5 years, he can.
