Jeff Okudah Goes Third Overall To The Lions
5 years agoThe Detroit Lions selected Ohio State cornerback Jeff Okudah with the third overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft on Thursday. It's back-to-back Ohio State picks, with defensive end Chase Young going second overall to the Redskins. The Lions traded Darius Slay to the Eagles this offseason, so Okudah will come in right away and help replace Slay in Detroit's secondary. Okudah was the top corner in this year's class. He's got great size and length and loves to play physical at the line of scrimmage. The Lions were pretty bad against the pass all of last year, even with Slay, but hopefully Okudah can solidify their secondary for years to come.
