Broncos-Lions Swap Will Change Draft Boards

I think the will probably still take Thomas. This makes you think a little bit, but they may have just accepted Foster to provide depth...hes not that good.

I don't think Backus is that special, but since they just gave him a sizable contract last year, he will be starting at one of the tackles this season.

I certainly admit that the Lions could still take Thomas, but I speculate otherwise. As for Backus, IMHO, he's one of the top 10 LTs in the league (very good, but not elite).

Maybe they are going to move Foster inside.

I gotta say, he was a very sore thumb playing next to the 4 fingers on the Broncos line last year.

Lions might go after one of the D-linemen that we want
