Who will Detroit pick first round of the draft , why, and who will be the starting QB to begin the season?

I think they should take Michael Huff the blue-chip prospect who can play CB or S. Lions need help on Defense especially at the DB position and they have drafted Offense for the last 7 years so they should be going for defense this year. I think that they will favor Josh McCown, b/c of how he would be a better fit for Mike Martz's offense.

What Detroit needs to have a successful next season is a NEW quarterback. Joey Harrington has been given too many chances to take over the team. The team keeps trying to build around Harrington and it ends in failure. Harrington was given two high first round recivers, Marcus Pollard, Charles Rogers and Kevin Jones. All this talent surrounding him and he is not able to work with it. They even gave Harrington Steve Mariucci, the greatest offensive minded coach for QB's, who helped mold two legends of the game Favre and Steve Young. \n\nI know you like Harrington, but it's time to move on. He had a great college career, but just couldn't cut it in the fast paced NFL. \n\nA new QB is what the Lions need to be able to compete for the NFC North division title.

It officially starts Thursday September 7th. My number one pick would be L.Tomilinson. Since Everyone else will be goin for L.J. and Alexander, i think they will have trouble early on and L.T. will flourish, becase Rivers will have to ease into playing and they will rely upon the run.

They need to strengthen their offensive line.  Either an OT or a center.  Dominic Raiola has outlived his usefulness up front.  I'd love to see them draft a quarterback, but I think they're going to stick with Joey to see if Mike Martz can make an NFL quarterback out of him.

Whoever said pick a good defense, I want to play FF with you.  YOU ARE RETARDED!!!!!\n\nAs for your question, a top flight receiver may be a good choice, but you HAVE to take at least 1 RB with those picks.  Take a look at depth at the QB position.  There is so much this year that a QB (like Palmer last year) taken in the 7th-10th rounds could very easily be a top 5 QB.  Also, since you would have to wait from 13 to 36, RB's will be very thin by the time you get to 36.\n\nHere are the (projected) top 15 RB's listed in my league that I am running (note - we get .5 pts for receptions)\n1. Alexander\n2. LJ\n3. LT\n4. Portis\n5. Barber\n6. Edge\n7. R. Johnson\n8. Jordan\n9. S. Jackson\n10. Cadillac\n11. Westbrook\n12. R. Brown\n13. D. Davis\n14. J. Jones\n15. McGahee\n\nAs you can see, #13 is dealing with injury questions and #14 may not even be the #1 on his team come the beginning of the season (Marion Barber III).  I'm not saying you have to take 2 RB's (at 36, you might get someone like A Green, Bell, Droughns, Benson, etc. but these are all guys that are looking to split carries) with your 1st 2 picks, but there is greater depth at WR and QB then there is at RB.  If S. Smith is there, I would definitely take him.  Fitzgerald, Harrison, C Johnson, and Holt would be questionable WR's at 12 or 13.\n\nAs for someone with the 1st pick, you have to think about they are getting a top 3 RB and then the 24th and 25th pick.  They will probably pick up another RB (K Jones, J Lewis, W Dunn, R Bush, D McAllister, etc.) and either a top 3 QB or top 5 WR.  But where the bulk of the players waiting to explode, are drafted between 25 and 45, in which you have two very good selections at 36 and 37\n\nDon't be too discouraged though.  I've seen more people win with the last pick in the draft then the 1st.  The draft is all about getting the best value with the pick you have, not necessarily the best player.  Yeah, maybe you can get a Brady, Palmer, Manning with the 13th pick, but you can probably get a McNabb or Culpepper with your 3rd or 4th round pick, or possibly a Bulger, Green, Bledsoe, Hasselbeck, E Manning, Delhomme, Plummer, or Warner in the 5th or 6th rounds or later (also, dont forget about Brees, Vick, B Johnson, Favre, Brooks, Brunell, or Leftwich).

Before the season I would have said Chris Shelton of the Tigers, I was able to get him on both of my fantasy teams, but now the secret's out (6hr and 12rbi).  Since I watch the Tigers all the time, I could give a pretty good case for starting pitcher Jeremy Bonderman.  He's a guy you can pick up in the middle rounds and he'll give you first round numbers.  He only had 14 wins last year, but he puts up a high number of strikeouts, he has an average ERA, and a low WHIP.  \n\nOutside the Tigers, I would say Audrey Huff of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays could be one of the top sleeper picks.  His numbers were down last year after a season in which he hit 30hr and over 100rbi.  He's off to a slow start again this year, but he's a guy with a lot of upside that you can probably get later in the draft.

I think this year is gonna prove to be a changing of the guard in the NFL.  I think the Broncos may be poised for a playoff run.  I also think the Bears returning defense and more experienced offenense could create problems for the nfc.  The true sleepers however I would have to agree with most of the other posters and go with Arizona and Baltimore.  Arizona is a little soft on defense but their offense will be exciting.  Baltimore is set on defense and adding McNair with a healthy Jamal Lewis and they might be legitimate contenders.  Not to mentio, McNairs familiarity with number one reeceiver Derrick Mason.  Also, Miami.  I dont know if people would be that suprised though.  They finished last season on a tear and had a good offseason.

question to person above.  Who will be QB of dolphins when they do?

Better question....who's going to be the starting quarterback for the Jets?

I think that he will be drafted but I don't think it will be until the mid to late rounds.  Yes he is in a west coast offense system but that doesn't make him an automatic first round selection.  I think that he will be mainly back up and possibly down the road someone will give him the chance to start.  He usually makes good decisions with the ball, which is definitely a plus but the major concern i've heard is arm strength and mobility.  It could be nice to see a husker QB taken in the draft as a QB and not a DB or WR.

Considering he's the most likely first pick...\n\nThe 2-9 teams:\nArizona would pass as they have Lienert.\nOakland certainly would take him as they haven't had a rookie phenom at quarterback as long as I can recall.\nDetroit could take him as well.  Kitna and McCown aren't exactly high profile QBs with future potential.\n\nThe 3-8 teams:\nHouston has Carr, and that offense is starting to work.  I suspect they'd draft defense again.\nCleveland has Frye...not certain they're ready to end that experiment yet.\nTampa has a couple of young options after Gradowski has played well, so doubtful here as well.\n\nBest guess, Quinn will end up either a Raiders or a Lion.  Hopefully neither of those organizations will kill him.

Being from Detroit, I know it will be Kitna- although I would like to see McCown. Kitna is alright, I think the young guy will be better suited and more successful for this team.

Well, it should be interesting, to say the least, when the Texans take (presumably) Reggie Bush with the #1 pick, passing on Young. Because, by taking Bush, they imply "we have the utmost confidence in David Carr to lead us" and I wonder how. When has Carr shown he can effectively lead that offense and how will the addition of one star (Bush) change it?

I agree that Ferguson will be taken if he is left on the board. I however believe that Williams will be taken at 27 by Carolina. By the way the Jets are the 29th pick not the 28th. At this point New York can take an enormous chance and try grabbing Lendale White of USC. He has gained much weight and has torn a hamstring both massive drawbacks. However he was the bread to Reggie Bush's butter at USC. An alternative is Laurence Maroney out of Minnesota.

he's good. maybe a little overated by some. i think he will get drafted by the detroit lions. they have a tendancy to draft offensive players. cutler would probably have a better rating if he were on a higher profile college team.

My number one pick would be LT. People have been talking about him breaking Alexander's record of TD's in a season, and he will get plenty of carries. Best QB = Peyton Manning. Best WR = Chad Johnson or Marvin Harrison.
