I think often when people say they would have preferred another path, others misinterpret that to mean they don’t like the path that was chosen. That’s not at all the case.

Detroit Lions 2020 Post-Draft Roster Outlook (OFFENSE)

For reference, here is the pre-draft overview for QB and OL. QB No additions and that’s a good thing.

GM Hat: Lakeshow

Much is being made over the “predicament” the Lakers find themselves in, regarding how they will construct a team around LeBron James, and the newly acquired Anthony Davis (EDIT: Not anymore !).
