Detroit Lions: "What the Ford is up"? Madden Franc
I have chosen the Detroit Lions as the franchise I would like to rebuild after conducting a poll which ended in a 9 way tie.
Now that I have chosen the team, I wish to continue to keep this franchise interactive by allowing you guys the opportunity to choose one player 85 overall or better for me to trade for. Some areas we may want to look at are Free Safety, Quarterback, Right Tackle, or a good linebacker(ours are average). I will post a poll, if you feel like you have a better idea select other and state the player you want.

Reggie, Vernon, or Sean, all are young so you can build around them, what kind of offense are you going to run, because Vernon is good in a WCO.

well I would be trading whatever it takes within reason to get the player that is selected. I will be looking to run a Play Action offense based off of a strong running game.

Based on that, I would pick up Vernon Davis as he would be the perfect target in a pa offense and would fill an area of need.

You should get a QB then, as that's one of Det's biggest needs. Get Eli Manning

Reggie, hands down. He got over 3500 yards for me as a rookie. Also 34 TDs.

This could have gone in the madden thread.
Sean Taylor or DeAngelo Hall, but Reggie is tempting.

You got a young back with Kevin Jones so i wouldnt go reggie. VD or Deangelo would be my option because you can draft Laron Landry at FS. When importing draft classes theres not usually any great TE's and Deangelo is just a beast. Since your the lions id think about going QB.

Well if he is doing a interactive franchise in this thread it wouldn't have made sense to put this in the official madden thread.

Since you are going with the play action offense I think you gotta have a stud TE and that's why I voted for VD.

you should have tried to get pary haralson and a draft pick along with vernon davis for boss bailey, that way you dont have a big gap to fill at LB

I did a franchise with the 49ers. Vernon is a beast. Faster than alot of WR's.

manny lawson is a beast also, the greatest thing was when my corner got beat deep and manny came out of nowhere to save the TD, of course they scored later that drive but that is beside the point :D
