Fantasy Football: Lions finish No. 14 among NFL teams in 2012 Draft



The Detroit Lions tied for No. 14 with the Kansas City Chiefs in the 2012 NFL draft from a fantasy football perspective.
The ratings are offense-centric, so the Lions "lost" points for using six of their eight picks to select personnel for their defense.  If not for the selection of Iowa offensive jersey wholesale tackle Riley Reiff and Oklahoma wide receiver Ryan Broyles in the first two rounds, Detroit would have finished a lot lower.
The Lions finished behind Minnesota and ahead of Green Bay and Chicago among philadelphia flyers jersey cheap online the NFC North teams participating in the 2012 NFL Draft.  Minnesota finished 4th overall.  Green Bay was 16th and Chicago was 19th.
These results do not reflect free agent signings that occurred after the draft.  For example, Detroit has invited one quarterback, one running back, three wide receivers and two tight ends to try to make the 2012 squad.
