Should the Lions take another WR in the first round next year? The third time was apparently the charm with Calvin Johnson, so why not just keep going..

I say the Lions forget conventional football draft strategy, and just pick wide recievers for every pick of the rest of their franchises future. They could build a team of 50 wideouts playing every position on the field.

How about Ford Motor Corp. files for Chapter 11 and are force to sell the team to a new owner that's wants to win a Superbowl? This will happen soon.

Yes, I love their strat of taking nothing but WRs in the 1st round. I would do it very year.

Sure, go ahead and take another WR. After this season's 0-16, then they can shoot for 0-32 next year.

Andre Smith from 'bama,we need an o-line. After that the best linebackers available,maybe a qb late. But it all means nothing if they don't hire a quality gm,quality coach(cowher?) and draft experts. They have a chance with this draft to really start turning this around,but not without MAJOR changes.
