6. Detroit Lions (via LAR): DE Will Anderson — Alabama
A no-brainer pick for Dan Campbell and the upstart Lions. Anderson is elite at one thing: Getting after opposing quarterbacks. Alabama lined him up all over the field, and Anderson produced with ridiculous first-step quickness and an instinctual prowess well above most of his peers.
He might not have the overall upside of a Tyree Wilson (Anderson is smaller). Still, possessing an Alabama pedigree does say something. Anderson should be a highly productive player (assuming he stays healthy) for a long time.
