A QUARTERBACK Driven League....2012 Draft Report...NFC NORTH...PURPLE PEOPLE #3....BEARS #19....LIONS #23....PACKERS #28.....MEGATRON of the Motor City...stay off that 2013 MADDEN Cover for LIONS Nation

The NFC North will be busy and all 4 teams in the Division have a Pick in the 1st round. The Vikes have a good situation and its too bad they can't move down in the 1st round for a New Stadium but that is neither here nor there.

The Bears and Lions are both chasing and really close to the packers as far as Rosters stand. The Lions most likely need an Offensive Lineman and the Bears need Linebacker Depth as Urlacher and Briggs enter Father Time at least #54 is.

The Pack have their eyes on a Linebacker as well and they may need to address Running Back also to give Rodgers another weapon on Offense and respectable running attack.

The BLUEDUDE'S Projections of Picks and Trades in the NFC North sponsored by...Will the Pack or Bears select Boise State's DE/OLB Shea McClellin..word around Bluedude Sportstalk is the Ravens are looking at the Top DE/OLB/ILB in the Draft for their #29 pick:

PURPLE PEOPLE (3-13 in 2011): They pick at #3 and they could trade out of the Pick but they should get one of two guys....Men of Troy's OT Matt Kalil or Anquan Boldin 2.0....in Stillwater Cowboys WR Justin Blackmon. They already know they have the 1st real pick as the Colts and 'Skins hand is already on the table.

MONSTERS of the MIDWAY ( 8-8 in 2011): They will pick at #19 and they have many options as they could go WR in Michael Floyd, Alshon Jeffrey, Kendall Wright or go DE in Quinton Coples...Julius Peppers 2.0 or having not resigned DT Anthony Adams they could get LSU's Michael Brockers. The Bears will also look at Bosie State's DE Shea McClellin. Bears....Bears....Bears.....SPIKE LEE... DO the RIGHT THING

LIONS ( 10-6 in 2011): They have the #23 and they will select a OT unless Gilmore or Kirkpatrick falls and if that happens the Pontiac SILVERDOME will re-open. If they are both gone they will probably go Planet Glenn of UGA or Harvard of the West OT Jon Martin. The Lions need a Corner but they also need to protect their investment in QB Stafford and if he is upright....Burleson, Yong, and MEGATRON will be Lethal Weapon 3....the Ford Motor F-150 Super Cab Edition.

PACKERS ( 15-1 in 2011): They have the #28 and they need a running back, safety and Linebacker to take Heat off of Clay Matthews. The thinking here is Boise State's Shea McClellin or ND's Safety Harrison Smith. Look also for Illinois' DE/OLB Whitney Mercilus and 'CUSE Chandler Jones.

Everyone is chasing the Pack and the Bears and Lions are right there and both have explosive offenses and the Purple People need to get Kalil to get a good looking QB in Ponder more confidence.

The middle to the bottom half there will be a few DE/OLB/ILB going with a frenzy.
