You are Locked on Lions, your daily Detroit Lions podcast, part of the Locked On Podcast Network.

All right, good morning, everybody, a special Friday morning edition of Lockdown Lions right here on the Lockdown Podcast Network,

giving you a little bonus track today on a Friday, February 23rd.

Matt Derry with you as we get ready for the NFL Combine next week, the draft, and a lot to discuss here on Lockdown Lions on this Friday morning.

Hope you're having a good week, everybody, and getting ready for the weekend.

Lions Brass, everybody will ascend certainly upon Indianapolis for next week's

combine, which starts on Tuesday.

What I want to talk about today in Lockdown Lions are a couple of things.

Number one, a new mock draft written by Dave Burkett at the free press,

and we're seeing a name now being linked to the Lions multiple times. We'll explain who that is coming

up. Also, an article from CBSSports.com, which Tim 20man picked up on the Detroit Lions.com website

about strength of schedule and what it means to the Lions. We'll get into that as well today.

And I've got to play a little audio from Brent Barry from NBA TV and NBA on T&T. Talk about the

lockdown network. We'll play that for you today as well. Thank you for listening right here on

megaphone.fm. If you're listening on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon Alexa, tune in.

Wherever you're listening, appreciate that.

Let your friends know about Lockdown Lions and what we bring you each and every day right here on this very podcast,

talking Detroit Lions football and trying to give you opinions, good guess.

This past week we had Jeremy Reisman on from pride of Detroit.com talking about Ziggy Ansah. We sit here on Friday, February 23rd, and the Lions still have not made a decision on Ziggy

Anza and whether or not to franchise them or not, maybe they're negotiating with him.

We won't know anything really probably until we get to March in regards to what the

lion's plan is for their best pass rusher, Ziggy Ansah.
