ESPN analysis of our guys as draft picks

[Crusty]

Round 3, No. 65 overall: Andre Cisco, S, Syracuse​

My take: The Jaguars need playmakers in the secondary and Cisco was one of the best in the country in 2018-19 when he had 12 interceptions (most in FBS). All of the Jaguars' safeties from 2018-20 combined for 10 interceptions. Cisco finished his career with 13 interceptions in 24 games. The Jaguars signed strong safety Rayshawn Jenkins in free agency and Cisco will compete with Jarrod Wilson to be the starter at free safety. Cisco did, however, miss 11 games last season after suffering a torn ACL when he collided with a teammate during pre-game warmups, so it's unclear at this point when he'll be completely cleared.

Round 3, No. 101 overall: Ifeatu Melifonwu, CB, Syracuse​

My take: Lions fans may have a hard time pronouncing his name initially (eh-FAH-too mel-eh-FON-woo), but he fulfills a need on the defensive side as a 6-foot-3, 205-pound cornerback with a nearly 42-inch vertical, which can help him make up for things other corners can’t with that size and athleticism. The 2020 third-team All-ACC selection racked up 88 career tackles in college, in addition to 19 passes defensed and three interceptions. The Lions selected Jeff Okudah third overall in the 2020 NFL draft, but this selection adds depth to the position. He has had positive interaction with Lions defensive backs coach Aubrey Pleasant and looks forward to soaking in as much knowledge from him as possible.
