35. Detroit Lions
D’Andre Swift | RB | Georgia
A bit of a surprise here, but it’s hard to complain about the value the Lions are getting here. The Lions spent a second-round pick two years ago on Kerryon Johnson, but durability has been an issue.
Swift is a first-round talent with a complete skill set who can make big plays on all three downs. He’s a physical runner with fantastic quickness and vision, with the explosiveness to hit paydirt on every touch.
There were bigger needs elsewhere on both sides of the ball in Detroit, but Swift gives them an immediate upgrade in the backfield, and he’s a bargain outside the first round.
