Allen Park — The Detroit Lions added nine players in the draft this week, with several drawing the standard visceral reaction from fans. If we're being realistic, we won't have a true sense for the impact of this group for at least a year, probably two. But after having a night to ponder the additions, we do have some thoughts we'd like to share.
Is bigger better?
There was a consistent theme with the defensive players the Lions added this weekend — they're big. We're talking notably bigger than average for their positions, whether that's height in the secondary or weight throughout the front seven.
