Seven teams that improved most on offense in 2015 NFL Draft (7. Detroit Lions: Detroit should get an immediate starter in Duke guard Laken Tomlinson, whom the club took with the No. 28 overall pick after a trade with the Denver Broncos. Behind Tomlinson, general manager Martin Mayhew added Ameer Abdullah, the small-but-explosive star running back from Nebraska who can make big plays through the smallest of holes. If Abdullah can be coached out of his reputation as a fumbler, quarterback Matthew Stafford will have a dangerous new weapon with which to work. Fullback Michael Burton went to Detroit in the fifth round, and seventh-round pick Corey Robinson of South Carolina is a massive right tackle prospect who could surprise in fall camp as a run blocker.): http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000493120/article/seven-teams-that-improved-most-on-offense-in-2015-nfl-draft

NFL's Best QB Situations (7. Lions, Matthew Stafford: Matthew Stafford and Clayton Kershaw were childhood teammates. Stafford probably can’t throw a curveball, but has only slightly less arm talent than his south-pawed friend. Stafford spins a ridiculous ball, and is capable of placing it just about anywhere. So if he’s sports soulmates with Kershaw, why does he sometimes insist on throwing like Byung-hyun Kim? Stafford makes amazing throws. He’s also prone to inexplicable ones, and too often misses his target when he goes into gunslinger mode. That’s one of the reasons why, despite all the arm talent in the world, Stafford has averaged just 24 scores over the past three seasons. Stafford has a way of making his game feel lacking even when he’s on it. This isn’t necessarily fair. Stafford has led two playoff teams, and has a 41-touchdown campaign on his résumé. He simply must rein in his blunders, and focus on what makes him great. Stafford isn’t paid to throw sliders. He’s got perhaps the league’s best fastball, and can paint the corners (deep dimes to Calvin Johnson) with the best of them. 2014 hinted at subtle improvement. Still only 27, Stafford will be quarterbacking in Detroit for many years to come. It’s up to him to make sure they’re productive ones.): http://www.rotoworld.com/articles/nfl/54208/57/nfls-best-qb-situations?pg=1
