The Detroit Lions made geniuses out of the entirety of local beat writers and took Ohio State cornerback Jeff Okudah with the third overall pick. It was a pick that just about everyone saw coming, but does that mean it was the right one?
Here are my quick thoughts on the Lions’ decision to draft Okudah.
It bears repeating just how snug of a fit Okudah is on this Detroit Lions roster. Not only does he come in and immediately take over one of the starting outside cornerback jobs, but his similarity with what the Lions like to run makes him a candidate to start out the year hot.
