I'd love to hear some projections for this years draft and offseason business.

I am a Miami fan through and through. I would love to see us pick up one of the big name receivers that could hit free agency; namely TJ Housh and Anquan Boldin. Preference is for Boldin. His catch and run ability is amazing, and a solid possession receiver to complement Ginn's ability to stretch the field, and Camarillo working it underneath would give the Dolphins a great passing attack.

Maybe even more so I would love to see Nnamdi go to us, but I would bet a lot of money that isn't a possibility. Even if the Raiders don't franchise him, he is going to command a crazy amount of cash.

In the draft I could go a lot of routes. I think we can wait on a big receiver for now. Our offense struggled to run and really control the game. With Smiley and Donald Thomas back, it could change, but I would be happy seeing us get Duke Robinson like some are projecting. If we could score Max Unger in the second round, our line would be a force!

Any aspect of the defense could use an upgrade as well, be it at NT, LB, or DB.

The only other team I will comment on now is Detroit. Everyone projects Stafford to go first... I would prefer to see them get the best OT in the draft, whomever that may be. Yeah they need QB, but I think they need to fix the basics first. If they used their two first rounders on the O Line (C Alex Mack or G Robinson with their second pick perhaps), they could pick up Cassel. With Johnson to throw to, and a decent run game with Kevin Smith, they might not be bad next season.

Other option would be to trade down. I see this being a possibility this season as opposed to last season. There are two options for QB, which are projected to both go in the top 10. Crabtree is a significant favorite at receiver, and is projected to go to Seattle at 4. I could see someone trading up to go after him.

That is all!

The Lions need him!

Lions needs go LOT, NT, MLB, G, CB, DE...but they all need to be starters! So a few of those need to come from FA.

agreed but that will probably not be addressed this year...of course i have no knowledge of college DTs so I wouldn't know how good the market is on those
