Ole Miss. Laquon Treadwell. 16. player. 50. . WR

With Calvin Johnson retiring there is a massive need for the Detroit Lions to address the wide receiver position. Laquon Treadwell was once viewed as a potential top-10 pick, but questions linger about his speed.

Treadwell  didn’t run the 40 at the Combine, but looked great in positional drills and if the 6-3″, 219-pound Treadwell runs in the 4.5 range at his Pro Day, this could be a bargain for the Lions.

He won’t be Megatron, but the player nicknamed Megaquon is a pretty nice replacement. Offensive tackle and defensive line is an option for the Lions if Treadwell is off the board or if he runs a sluggish 40.
