It may be the off-season for the Lions, but that doesn't mean there isn't something to discuss especially coming off a 10-6 season. Check here for commentary and updates on roster moves, free agency and, yes, the draft.

Lions go DL in the 4th

The Lions finally addressed their line, one of them at least, by taking small-school defensive tackle prospect Sammie Lee Hill. I'd be lying if I said I knew anything about him other than what I've read on the internet.

He's 6-foot-4 and 329 pounds, which fits the description of a defensive tackle in Jim Schwartz's scheme. At Stillman, he played mostly defensive end, but he projects to the interior line in the NFL.

We should have a teleconference here in a minute and Matt Stafford's press conference is 20 minutes from now. I'll have more updates later.

NFL.com compares Hill to a more consistent Shaun Rogers but he may be a little bit of a project.
