Its a great feeling knowing that the Lions will have most of their roster return next year, most of the time us Lions fans have to learn about 30-35 new players.

Free Agency:

- Running back: Cedric Benson or Micheal Bush. (We need a power back to compliment Best and Morris, I think KSmith is gonna be cut/released)

- Wide Receiver: James Jones or Braylon Edwards (May be too pricey for Edwards, but both should be free agents since their team can't afford them)

- Offensive Guard: Alan Faneca or Ryan Kalil. (Peterman is a bum and a big ugly veteran is needed to open up some holes)

- Defensive End: Cliff Avril (Re-sign)

- Linebacker: Chad Greenway and Mike Peterson (Both are needed, Greenway should be the #1 free agent target.)

- Cornerback: Carlos Rogers. (He may be fed up with the changes going on in Washington, could be a huge pick up)

Draft:

1st round. OLB, Akeem Ayers UCLA or Von Miller TEXAS A&M

2nd round. CB, Brandon Burton UTAH or Curtis Brown TEXAS

3rd round. BPA. Clint Boling, OT, GEORGIA or Justin Boren, OG, Mich/OSU

4th round. BPA, DeAndre McDaniel,S, CLEMSON. or  Tyler Sash, SS, IOWA
