Detroit Lions 2008 NFL Draft and
Free Agency Team Needs
The top needs for the Lions to fill
in the upcoming draft and free agency.
Offensive Tackle:
George Foster was a massive disappointment and things got so bad that Damien
Woody, a natural guard / center, was actually seeing action at right tackle
by the end of the season
Tight End: Dan Campbell
would be okay in a backup role but as a starter he leaves something to be
desired
Cornerback: After you
get past Fernando Bryant there might not be another starting-caliber corner
on the roster. The Lions allowed an absurdly high completion percentage in
2007, and an inconsistent pass rush was only partly to blame. The coverage
in the secondary was poor.
Defensive end: As badly
as the Lions need a right tackle — if they fail to re-sign Damien Woody—
they need a right defensive end even more
