Brodric Martin fully intends to contribute to Detroit Lions defensive line right away

Not that he would say anything else, but Detroit Lions rookie defensive tackle Brodric Martin made his intentions for his first season clear.

The Detroit Lions traded up into the end of the third round of April’s draft to select Western Kentucky defensive tackle Brodric Martin. It was a fairly surprising pick, and no one was more surprised than the incoming rookie himself.

Talking at rookie minicamp, via the team website, Martin said he and his family was preparing to extend his hotel draft party into Day 3 of the draft when the Lions called.
