IMO, you pick McFadden if he is there even if it's not the Cowboys biggest need. After that Dallas has to look at the offensive side of the ball at WR and defensively at CB and S.

My Top 3:

Darren McFadden
Adarius Bowman
Antoine Cason

Knocking on the door:

Terrell Thomas, CB, USC
Limas Sweed, WR, Texas

Last year he often played to far off the ball even though there is hardly a WR in the nation that can outrun him which is a result of Penn State trying to hide his coverage skills in press and man to man. He has looked good so far this spring but has to grow leaps and bounds to work his way into Round 1. Being only a Junior unless King has eye raising numbers it's very likely he could return next year to PSU.

Thanks for the info on King

He still intrigues me. He seems raw, so it may depend on how henry play's this year. Wheather or not CB is an immediate need or a long term one. If Henry can stay healthy, and have a solid season, we may be able to take a guy like King

Here are the players on my bandwagon for the Lions...

1. Darren McFadden- as of now, I don't see the Lions being in a position to get him but if we are than I can almost gurantee that we take him.

2. Steve Slaton- This would make more sense as far as where he should fall and where the Lions are predicted to have their first pick. If we get him or McFadden, I would be happy either way.

3. Dwight Lowery (CB) San Jose St.- You may not of heard of this guy, but if you look at the player with the most interceptions for last year this guy will be at the top of the list. I would almost rather see the Lions get him of McFad or Slaton (Nah, nvm) but he will probablly go in the second or maybe the first if he has another good year.

4. James Laurinatis MLB, Ohio State- He may be from Ohio State but this guy can straight up play. He reminds me of A.J Hawk.

Others- Glen Doresy DT LSU, Jake Long OT Michigan, Antoine Cason are a few others that I wouldn't mind seeing in Detroit but they aren't on my bandwagon...yet.

Oh yea and Desean Jackson is my real #2.... Haha JP (That shouldn't be something I even joke around about cause knowing Millen, it might happen)

I dont think Detroit will draft offence again, at least not at skill position.

Your probablly right. Well at least with Slaton. I can't see anyone that doesn't have an elite runningback passing him up. The way the defense is playing right now (exceptionally well) they might take a RB in the first round but who knows lol, the Lions might not win another game all year. I shouldn't have even said that.

Ray Rice and Mike Hart are both better pro prospects then Slaton to me because both are better uphill RBs while Slaton is a spread RB much like Reggie Bush.... that wont work in the NFL
