Ok, I'm going to get a lot of angry looks for this one, but here it goes...If they Lions draft Aaron Curry it will be a bad pick.
No, not Mike Williams,Charles Rogers, or Joey Harrington bad. He will come in and perform and be a playmaker, but with the acquisition of Julian Peterson, our LB corp goes from top priority to 3rd or 4th on the list. If we draft defense, I would rather see B.J. Raji since our Dline looks far worse than our linebackers. The pick I would lean more towards would be E. Monroe or J. Smith as that would help at two spots, LT and G, and our offensive line would pretty much be set.
Another reason I'm against Curry, is that the linebackers available at no.20 or no.33 are better than the offensive linemen. I would rather draft E. Monroe and Rey Maualuga/James Lauarainitus than Aaron Curry and Beatty.
Here's what my draft would look like (1st 5 picks)
1a-J. Smith
1b-Rey Maualuga
2 Robert Ayers
3a- Ron Brace
3b- Best corner available
Then pick up Terrence Taylor in the 6th and a WR/TE.
