Lions Plan to Pick Calvin Johnson

The latest word about the NFL Draft and the Lions say as long as Calvin Johnson is on the board (and most expect he will be), they will take him. Afterwards, they will work with teams on a possible trade.

The major team whose trying to get Johnson and move up are the Tampa Bay Bucs.

Re: Lions Plan to Pick Calvin Johnson

Yep, the NFL Network is confirming this, saying that Mike Martz was able to sell everyone on the decision. Whether or not it's actually Martz's call (and I believe it is), it helps Millen save face by leaving the pick up to his coaches like this. Johnson is the right pick for them, and I'm glad they found a way to justify it.

Do you think that he would have a better career with the Bucs, or the Lions?
