We’ve heard from several folks that the Lions are expected to select Florida defensive end Derrick Harvey, if he’s still available at No. 15. 

If not, then the pick will be Tennessee linebacker Jerod Mayo.

And given the arrest of safety Kalvin Pearson for aggravated battery of a pregnant woman and domestic assault by strangulation (the penalty for which should be death by mugabe), it’s safe to say that the Lions will be taking a closer look at safeties, after round one.
