50. As unlikely as it is the Lions take a center in the 1st round it would be even more unlikely if they used picks 1 & 2 on offensive linemen but it is the area that needs the most help right now. Ifedi is well-built, hes wide and long making it difficult for rushers to get around him. He has played both left and right tackle but didn’t show enough ability to be a consistent starter at left tackle but the versatility to play both in a time of need would be an added<a class=. OT. Texas A&amp;M. Germain Ifedi. 2. player

If the Lions were to receive another 2nd round pick from a 1st round

and Robert Nkemdiche is still available then the Lions should look to take him. Being one of the best pure athletes in the draft I would arguably draft him ahead of Ifedi and take Ifedi later in the 2nd.
