CHICAGO – The Lions were able to fill a need at offensive tackle with their first-round pick of Taylor Decker on Thursday night, and they’ll be on the clock for at least two more selections today.

The Lions currently own the No. 46 overall pick in the second round and the No. 95 overall pick in the third round. Their third-round choice is a compensatory selection for losing Ndamukong Suh in free agency last year and can’t be traded.
