calvin johnson, golden tate are your 1/2 wideouts, and lets waste a 1st round pick on a skill position.

lose games 37-34 again...

how can detroits defense "show up" if you dont have the personnel?
I'm just saying... if Detroit gets a high draft pick... use it's value. Why would you select a player who would go 15-20th when you can get someone who would go 1 or 2? You take what's immediately available. You can always fill in the pieces later. Isn't that how the New England Patriots do it every single year? How in the hell do they do it? Well... Detroit needs to learn how. Go 3 solid wide. It would open up major windows. Gives Stafford much more room for error. Detroit really didn't have 3 solid WR last season. They only had 1. If you have 3 solid "go getters" how in the hell would the opposing team cover them? Someone would be open every down.

They already addressed that though with Tate as a #2. They definitely been more help on defense than on offense.
