What are the Detroit Lions' biggest remaining needs following the 2015 NFL Draft?
How did the 2015 NFL Draft affect the Detroit Lions' list of needs? First, let's recap the needs they addressed during the draft:
In the first round, the Lions not only drafted Laken Tomlinson to be their starting left guard, but they also acquired Manny Ramirez in a trade with the Denver Broncos. By bringing Ramirez back to Detroit, the Lions filled their need for a veteran backup at both guard and center.
On Day 2 of the draft, the Lions bolstered the running back position by taking Ameer Abdullah, and they also found Rashean Mathis' potential future replacement by selecting cornerback Alex Carter.
