For the record: 7 of the last 15 first and second round picks were on the offensive and defensive lines. Granted, only three were o-line (Brown, Stinch and Bently) and of the four D-linemen (SMith, Grant, Sullivan and Howard) two were arguably busts. So there's an issue with spotting talent. But drafting 3 WR in the first two rounds and having only one still on the team still who is heading to the bench is Detroit-like.
