9. Detroit Lions: Dre’Mont Jones, DT Ohio State

The Lions defense needs to improve. Part of the issue has been the adjustment to a new system under new head coach Matt Patricia. However, they also need to add talent across the board on that side of the ball in my opinion. Dre’mont Jones could become a foundation piece of the defense. This draft is loaded with talented defensive lineman and a team that needs an infusion of talent should be ecstatic to find one like Jones on the back end of the top ten.

10. Cleveland Browns: “Greedy” Williams, CB LSU

The Cleveland Browns have invested a lot of draft capital in the secondary. They drafted Denzel Ward in the top five last season and Jabrill Peppers in the first round the year before. However, the Browns are still at a place where they need to add talent wherever possible. If the top defensive back in the draft falls to the tenth overall pick that is a selection any team needs to make especially, the Browns who need to continue to add any young talent they can get their hands on as they seek to become relevant again.
