Todd McShay NFL mock draft update: Detroit Lions pick a Buckeye – Detroit Free Press

Detroit Lions fans who also like college football might not enjoy this idea. After all, Ohio State is the most hated college football team in the country.

But ESPN draft analyst Todd McShay has the Lions taking Buckeyes tackle Taylor Decker at No. 16 overall in his latest mock draft (version 3.0).

McShay writes: “Matthew Stafford was sacked 89 times the past two seasons, so the Lions have to address their offensive line somehow this offseason. Decker has good experience and is a solid fit at right tackle — a specific need for Detroit up front. A highly efficient run-blocker, Decker plays with enough toughness and range to hold up in pass protection at the next level.”
