I really liked the Lions draft.  You guys are already much more of a power team than I ever remember you being.  Just about all of your picks have a legit shot at making some sort of impact for you.

As for Hockenson, you are correct.  He was the likely pick had Allen not fallen into our laps at 7.

Bullseye, overall I thought it was a good draft by the Lions. Dan Campbell's input in the Lions draft decisions was evident.

My two primary disappointments based on available option are the Lions not drafting NC WR Dyami Brown, though I think NC State DT Alim McNeill was a good value pick in the early part of Round 3 ( # 72 ).  And the Lions passing up on LSU LB Jabril Cox ( even with consecutive picks ( # 112 and # 113 in the early part of .Round 4 ). Purdue LB Derrick Barnes was the LB choice at # 113 instead ( trade with the Browns for the pick). Though Barnes has plenty of versatility on Defense and has makings of a high quality Special Teams player,  the upside LB potential of Cox was very appealing.
