Follow along for the final day of the 2019 NFL Draft."We’ve finally reached the final Frank Ragnow Jersey , and most exhaustive, day of the NFL Draft. Saturday will see over 130 players drafted, spanning four rounds and seven hours. The Detroit Lions have already made three picks thus far, to varying degrees of popularity. The one that has drawn the most chatter is undoubtedly second-round pick Jahlani Tavai, whom many had not heard of when Detroit called his name as the 43rd overall selection. T.J. Hockenson and Will Harris were more traditional picks for the Lions, though there has been some criticism of those picks, as well.The Lions enter the final leg of the draft with still a few positions of need. Will they find a starting-caliber guard? Is it too late to snag a No. 2 outside corner to put opposite Darius Slay? Will the Lions grab that backup quarterback that we’ve all speculated about for the past four months. Here’s a look at the five picks they have entering Saturday.Lions remaining picksRound 4, Pick 9 (111 overall)Round 5 Jarrad Davis Jersey , Pick 8 (146 overall)Round 6, Pick 11 (184 overall)Round 7, Pick 10 (224 overall)Round 7, Pick 15 (229 overall)The fourth round starts at 12 p.m. ET Saturday. You can follow along with the Twitter list below:Tweets from https://twitter.com/chri...nfl-draft-coverageFriday open thread: Which Lions player will be key vs. New York Jets? The NFL opened its 2018 season on Thursday night to an ugly game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Atlanta Falcons. Both teams looked... well, they looked like they weren’t quite in tip-top shape for the regular season and may still have some growing pains to go through.If there’s a team that may be able to relate, it’s the Detroit Lions. Like the Eagles and Falcons, they struggled through the preseason, looking rusty at best T.J. Hockenson Detroit Lions Jersey , completely befuddled at worst.But the Lions were given a small present from the schedule-makers in 2018. Their first test of the season will be against the New York Jets—a team that is not only a consensus bottom-five team, but one that will be starting a rookie quarterback on Monday night, in front of a national audience. So today’s Question of the Day is:Which Lions player will be key to victory for Week 1?My answer: Ezekiel Ansah. The Jets have a horrible offensive line. The Lions have a horrible defensive line. It’s weakness vs. weakness, and the Lions need to win that matchup to make Sam Darnold uncomfortable in his debut and force him into a mistake. It’s impossible to know if Darnold will become the franchise quarterback he was drafted to be, but he looked pretty darn good in the preseason when given time. The last thing this Lions defense needs is a butt-whooping by a rookie quarterback to start the year.And that brings us to Ansah. He’s been dead-quiet all preseason and training camp... literally. The man appears dead-focused on playing, and, for him, that means saying very little to the media.As a result T.J. Hockenson Jersey 2019 , there hasn’t been much coverage of the guy. He didn’t play a ton in the preseason, and his performance out there wasn’t good nor bad. However, it’ll need to be good right out of the gate for this defense to build some confidence that it can generate some pass rush in 2018. If Ziggy can’t get it going on Monday night, we could be in for a long season.Your turn.Tweets from https://twitter.com/Prid...oit/lists/lions-coverage
