While recruitment coverage is always the top priority, I also happen to be a big NFL draft fan (and Detroit Lions fan) as well. And since this is my website, I decided to put together a 1st round mock draft and 7 round Lions mock draft below. So, feel free to rip apart every pick, your favorite team’s pick or each trade (there are a lot) in the comment section or on Twitter/Facebook.
