Free Press sports writer Carlos Monarrez answers three questions after Detroit Lions general manager Bob Quinn's news conference on Thursday, one week before the 2019 NFL draft:
Any big surprises from the predraft news conference?
I asked Quinn if a tight end he’s interested in (probably Iowa’s T.J. Hockenson) is available when the Lions pick eighth overall, would he have to take into account the disappointing tenure of tight end Eric Ebron, who never lived down the expectations of being drafted 10th overall by Martin Mayhew in 2014.
