How the Lions' Da'Shawn Hand project was two years in the making (5-1-18): http://www.mlive.com/lions/index.ssf/2018/05/dashawn_hand.html
Biggest post-draft questions for all 32 teams (Detroit Lions - How are the Lions going to rush opposing quarterbacks? The Lions took the approach of fixing their run game this draft, with three of their first five picks focused on the offensive line or running back. Meanwhile, Detroit didn't address the defensive line until the fourth round with former No. 1 high school prospect Da'Shawn Hand from Alabama. Hand could be a nice piece, but his college production doesn't indicate he'll be the difference-making type of player Detroit needs to pressure quarterbacks. This puts more pressure on Ezekiel Ansah to stay healthy and Kerry Hyder to return to his pre-Achilles-injury form. -- Michael Rothstein) (4-29-18): http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/page/32for32/post-2018-nfl-draft-biggest-questions-all-32-teams
Greg Cosell analyzes Lions' 2018 draft picks (Da'Shawn Hand: “Looks the part with his length, long arms and solid muscular build of a multi-dimensional defensive lineman, who can be effective in both 4-3 and 3-4 front alignments. Showed the hand strength to control and displace offensive linemen and make tackles in the run game. “Did not consistently play to his athleticism and at times did not look like he was playing with the demanded urgency. “Hand's tape showed a higher-level athlete with the kind of movement you don't normally see from a 297-pound defensive lineman – he ran a 4.85 40-yard dash at the Combine at 297 pounds. Hand has the traits to develop into a strong pass rusher both from the defensive end position and inside at defensive tackle, but he needs much coaching and experience to get there. "At this point Hand is the classic traits prospect, but he didn't play as many snaps or have the kind of production that those traits should have led to. There's much to work with, but coaching will be critical as will be Hand's approach as a professional.”) (4-30-18): http://www.detroitlions.com/news/lions-draft-weekend/article-1/Greg-Cosell-analyzes-Lions-2018-draft-picks/8bb4d4f2-e55a-4879-8b3f-1a7bc7b5a1e3
