Pat, This is the NFL, you need depth and that is where drafting is so important. One thing I love about this Detroit Lions is their first picks. They are drafting the big men, after getting their quarterback, and usually you get mileage out of the big men. I also a believer you win football games by building up the lines. It is a the second pick year after year that makes you pull your hair. Thou shall not waste my second pick on DBs or RBs
because they get hurt too often or any player that have a history of of concussions or personal problems. I will not draft TE because you can pick them later in the draft or free agency.
