- Robert Nkemdiche is the most polarizing figure in the NFL Draft. He apparently has interest from the Detroit Lions, as they have a formal interview lined up with him at the NFL Combine.
- Detroit is also taking a very close look at Vernon Butler, the defensive tackle out of Louisiana Tech:
Lions all over Vernon Butler. Formal interview in Mobile, informal here with another formal to come this weekend, according to the DT.
