The people showed up in Detroit for the NFL Draft - 275,000 of them, setting a record for the event. Plus, the Lions made a key pick - and we know now more about how the NFC North might shape up for next year.
To break it all down, Fletcher Sharpe joined me at the Foundation Hotel for a very early morning recording sessions.
