Sources close to Detroit's front office say that the team will take Gerald Holden with the first pick in the third round. Holden's accuracy issues have been much discussed as well as his lack of maturity. His potential to blossom into a first round talent is too much for Detroit to pass up.

EDIT: Ignore these rumors. I'm still going through my board versus my roster. QB may not be my pick with 3.1

Oakland snatched him up. Ever since first rounder Doss busted 6 seasons ago they tried two similar projects. Both not living up to potential, but New Orleans was big on this guy and believes Holden could break that pattern. Good luck !

Good grab! It was a tough choice between him and the DE I selected. I had to go DL first tho since I have a starting QB that is up to the task.

Also, I managed to grab my second favorite QB left with my last pick in the fourth after shoring up my DL, OL, and secondary. It was a good day for me.
