1. Ike Taylor
As far as top-flight veterans go, Taylor’s name is at the top of the list given what he’s accomplished with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Taylor is a tough, physical corner and someone capable of filling in depending on what happens with Rashean Mathis. Like Mathis, there’s a question about tire tread, but if someone wants to pay Mathis more than what Detroit feels he’s worth, they could attempt to get a year out of Taylor and select another rookie for him to help bring along.
