2019 NFL Draft profile: Kentucky EDGE Josh Allen would be perfect fit for Patricia’s defense

It’s no secret that the Detroit Lions have a multitude of holes across their defensive unit, and the biggest might be their need for an edge rusher. There are many to choose from, but not every guy is a good fit for Matt Patricia’s multiple defense. However, there is a guy that may be on the board by the time the Lions are picking early in the first round that I think will be a very nice fit for the defense: Kentucky pass rusher, Josh Allen.
