Gil Brandt said that he has a "little bit of a connection" to Jim Schwartz and that he doesn't think the Lions will draft an offensive lineman. Instead he believes the Lions will go with a defensive player. I personally agree with him. I don't think the Lions will take one of the offensive tackles, especially if Tyron Smith is off the board like many expect.
