Well, Detroit has a tackle who they like, but if they take Okung will move to G. Their LT is relatively solid, but their G is not. The reason they have looked at Okung is to move the T to G and strengthen two positions with one pick. If they strengthen the G, than they will not take a LT and push their starter to a backup role. So, in fact, it does mean something.

Man, Detroit could easily trade down (if the Rams don't take Bradford) and get Iupati (sp?). Although, I wonder if Jim Schwartz would pass taking Suh or McCoy.

I think there is no way they pass on the DT. They brought the DT from St. Louis, and Schwartz will want to have him pair up and mentor a young stud. Then they can pick up Pouncey, or any of several other C/G options with the 34th pick.

A nod to SS33's mock draft, it really made me look at the other teams from their point of view. It was a great exercise.
