My Draft Day Want List

After several weeks of researching and reading, I have finally decided my “Draft Day Want List” for tomorrow’s draft.  The players are listed in order (I highly doubt the first three will be available).  I only went through the positions I think the Detroit Lions need to target in this year’s draft (Offensive Tackle, Offensive Guard, Cornerback, Wide Receiver, Running Back, Defensive End and Outside Linebacker).  My hope is that some of the players at the bottom of this list may still be available in the third round for the Lions.  Anyways, here it is:

1. Patrick Peterson

(CB – Lousiana St.)
