How did your team fare in the first round of the draft? (will update after rounds 2 and 3)
My Home Team: Detroit Lions
1st Round Selection (5th overall): 'Ziggy' Ansah
My Opinion: At the start of the draft I knew it was unrealistic to think that Joeckel or Fisher would be there at 5th overall. I had hope that Lane Johnson the 3rd best OT would be available and that we would select him, but even he was gone. So with the top 3 offensive tackles off the board I would prefer that the Lions either trade down or select the best DB in the draft (Dee Millner). With this addition we would have made our secondary our strength on defense. Instead we chose 'Ziggy' who without a doubt is a freak of nature, but still very raw and will be a project. I honestly don't have faith in our defensive line coaches to teach him to play at the highest level when he has only 1 year of starting under his belt. That being said he did perform very well in the senior bowl and the Lions coaches were able to coach him in that game. They must know something that the experts don't to be so high on him.
Overall, I am disappointed with the Lions choice.
Edit:
I'm fairly pleased with the 2nd and 3rd rounders. We needed a CB and OG. Hopefully we go after a TE in the later rounds.
