Coming off a 6-10 2010 record, the Detroit Lions are motivated and ready to pick up where they left off last season, that is, a four-game winning streak. They also used a very thin draft to help bolster the team. With only five picks, the Lions chose wisely, selecting massive DT Nick Fairley to their already massive defensive line. Fairley, who was the 2010 Lombardi Trophy Award winner, will be a part of a 3-man rotation at the defensive tackle spot that will include Ndamukong Suh and Corey Williams? "We play around 130 defensive tackle snaps a game," he said. "You rotate three guys at 45 snaps a person and you are going to be really fresh. We can keep rolling in waves and waves. I thought Suh played too much last year. Not that he wore down but it was too many snaps. You are taking on 700 pounds of man every time you take on a double team."
