The Detroit Lions filled a big need in Round 1 of the NFL Draft Thursday night with the selection of Ohio State offensive tackle Taylor Decker.
“I think this is a position of need,” Lions general manager Bob Quinn said of adding talent to the offensive line after selecting Decker.
“I evaluate the film and say, ‘Alright, well how did the offensive line play?’ I think that was one of the areas we had to address and I felt like this was the best player at the right time to help us going forward.”
Quinn will attempt to fill more needs Day 2 in both the second and third rounds.
