As I do every year prior to the NFL draft, I ranked the draftable players myself and then follow the Detroit Lions as they maneuver through the annual college selection event. And this year was no different.
I was surprised that two of my top 100 weren’t drafted but pleased that one of them was later signed by the Lions (the other by the Washington Redskins). Here is how I had the players the Lions picked up ranked.
My third overall ranked player was selected by the Lions third overall, that being cornerback Jeff Okudah of course.
