MOCK DRAFT WATCH: Second and third rounds

Matt Miller, ESPN: JT Tuimoloau, Edge, Ohio State (No. 60)

Why: The top remaining need for the Lions comes opposite Aidan Hutchinson, where a former college rival in Tuimoloau could fit. The three-year starter has prototypical size (6-foot-4, 265 pounds) and has tape against first-round offensive tackles that make you believe he has the skills to become a quality starter.

Chris Trapasso, CBS Sports: Wyatt Milum, OT, West Virginia (No. 60); Denzel Burke, CB, Ohio State (No. 102)

Why: The Lions select a grinder (Milum) who knows how to win ugly and can play guard or tackle in the NFL.

Daniel Flick, Sports Illustrated: Alfred Collins, DT, Texas (No. 60); Josaiah Stewart, Edge, Michigan (No. 102)

Why: They don’t come much bigger than the 6′ 6″, 332-pound Collins, whose power and physicality at the point of attack should intrigue Lions head coach Dan Campbell.

Bryce Lazenby, Newsweek: Bradyn Swinson, Edge, LSU (No. 60); Savion Williams, WR, TCU (No. 102)

Why: The Lions go defense again, taking a promising edge-rusher in Swinson. The team needs to help out Hutchinson, and Swinson could develop into a special player.
