18. Detroit Lions

Derrick Nnadi . 18. player. 50. Haloti Ngata has decided to return for another year in Detroit. While that helps the Lions with their depth issues, odds are this will be his last season. That makes defensive tackle a higher priority going into 2018. After all defensive line is the absolute key to their success on defense. Last year proved that much when things fell apart down the stretch. Smart money says they take advantage of a solid college crop to improve. <p>Derrick Nnadi really came into his own last year for Florida State. He started off slow but broke out against Miami. From there he collected six sacks and 10.5 tackles for loss. He’s got a ton of momentum going into this season. Provided he stays in shape and hones his fundamentals he’s got the coveted mix of power and quickness to become a three-down defensive tackle for any team.</p>. DT. Florida State
