rumors are starting to circulate that Lions are staying put at #3 and taking DT Derrick Brown or CB Jeff Okudah. Color me unimpressed.
Like both players, don’t think either are best available at #3- TUA- and don’t think either are really worthy of a draft pick that high. Trade down, acquire picks and get one of them later.
Derrick Brown to me doesn’t have the athleticism to become the best, most dominant D tackle in football. He’s not Aaron Donald or Warren Sapp or Ndamokah Suh. If you’re picking a tackle that high- I think that should be your aim. If there’s not a guy you feel that strongly about then trade down.
And I like Okudah a lot, but I’m not in love with Okudah. If you’re taking a CB in the top 3 he better be Champ Bailey, Charles Woodson, even Jalen Ramsey. I do not see that out of Okudah. I’m sorry. I just don’t.
