    nice blog

    I think if the Lions go O with the first pick it should be J. Smith, if they go D it should be Curry.

    If I was picking, I would go with Curry.

    Thanks a lot! I am really pleased with how things are coming so far.

    Furthermore, I completely agree with your idea on Smith and Curry. I think either one of them will be a great choice at number 1.

    I like the info,dosen’t mean you were there.
    Some more color on the site would hold the eye longer,and add change of pace.
    Overall:
    Very nice info,lots of work put into it.

    Alright, thanks for the suggestions. Ill see what I can do about adding more color to spruce things up a bit more. And you are right, I didnt attend the combine- just watched it on nfl network’s live feed. But I still enjoy having discussions about football just the same :)

    Keep up the good work. If you need any instant info to help speed your process along let me know. I do have the NFL Network and I am attempting to keep up with my thoughts and analysis as fast as possible.

    I have a blog going right now that I post updates to as I see things happen.

    Wrapping up the O-Line drills and getting ready to head into the skill position guys today.
