If they worry about Fabien being laid back, Olafioye has that same demeanor, and he is a monster player.

Tillman about to be interviewed. Time for me to take a break. He has that smug look.

Personally, I don't think he came anywhere near to justifying the trade of Ricky Ray, although he will stand by it.

I am a little surprised they didn't take Plesius instead of Kirby as he was still available. They're always preaching taking the best athlete available, regardless of positional need.

6'6"" and 295lbs... Lulay might have trouble seeing downfield with this guy on the line!

Isn't that the mascot from Drinking Made Easy? Anybody else watch that show?

Now we need a receiver and another D Line.

I would say Gascon-Nadon at 20, and then a receiver at 37. Our NI depth at receiver is solid. Maybe gambling on Bilukidi or Crawford at 37?

The panel has pointed out that both Gore and Foster are not signed beyond this year. And both have some NFL interest.

Be nice to score Gascon Nadon or Cipicciotti.

Aprile, Bamba ... Be lucky to score one of them.

Oh I didn't realize we don't have Gore or Foster signed past this season. That would potentially decimate our receivers if we lost both Canadian starters.

Would you consider Adebayo at 20 if he's on the board?

I'm back ...

For sure. He went just ahead of us. BC had worked him out earlier.

Matt Norman very highly rated O Lineman.

Dorazio must be happy.

5. Bogdan Raic – Ottawa
6. Jordan Brescacin – Windsor
7. Sanchez Deschamps – Concordia

9. Jawann Westerman – Rutgers
10. Brad Fochesato - McMaster

Some quality receivers not drafted. Lions might consider for TC.

Lions could have drafted WR Bamba, but took LB Verdone. Must feel OK about Gore and Foster after 2012.

Bamba had some academic problems.

Edmonton took a gamble with Paztor and Chambers with their 1st rounds. Both are NFL bound

TSN has us taking Atkinson of Boise State in the third round but the Lions website has us taking Norman....

Anyone know the answer...Im hoping for Atkinson...

I saw that too, and was keen on Atkinson as well. But Ham and BC traded picks. Looks like we took O Lineman Matt Norman instead.

Dan Dorazio must be happy. O Line was not exactly shallow in depth. Now it is very deep.

Matt Norman looks like a very good prospect.

6' 4" 329 lbs. Huge.
