Mel Kiper Looks Like a Vampire

Mel Kiper has been predicting that the Detroit Lions will be indeed selecting Georgia Bulldog QB Matt Stafford with the No. 1 overall pick in April's draft, much to the dismay of many fans in Detroit. As noted in a recent ESPN poll, while much of the nation believes the Lions should take Matt Stafford, the state of Michigan desperately wants an O-Lineman.

I, myself think the Lions should draft Andre Davis out of Alabama, and am hoping the Lions are smarter then to select a QB with the first pick before they even have a serviceable offensive line to protect him. I am also hoping that the Lions use a lot of their picks in the draft to bolster their defense, which was the NFL's worst this past season.

If the Lions want to select a QB in the 3rd round or later, fine, but personally I think they need to use rounds 1 & 2 to improve the lines and middle linebacker.
