Detroit Lions take Brandon Doughty - QB - Western Kentucky
With Kellen Moore leaving Ford Field during the off-season, the Lions currently only have two QBs on the roster (Stafford and Orlovsky). Therefore, the Lions decide to take a project player with upside late in the sixth round to groom behind Stafford.
Doughty's measurables aren't elite by any stretch of the imagination, but his work during the NFL combine back in February was enough to intrigue the Lions front office to take a chance on Doughty. At 6'3", 213lbs, Doughty has the length of a modern prototypical quarterback and he has the college production to suggest that he isn't a complete mug. Doughty won the Conference USA MVP award in both 2014 and 2015, and won the 2014 Sammy Baugh Award as the nation's top quarterback while finishing as a finalist for the Manning Award in his senior year.
In 552 pass attempts as a junior, he passed for 4830 yards and 49 touchdowns, against 10 interceptions. He then led the Hilltoppers to a C-USA crown in passing for 5055 yards and 48 touchdowns the following year.
Doughty comes into the NFL as a slightly older prospect, having spent six years in college with the NCAA awarding him the opportunity after he missed most of 2011 and 2012 due to injury.
Doughty is a quarterback who needs strong protection in order to be effective, but when he has the clean pocket, he can play a confident and intelligent brand of football. He is a smart quarterback who will diagnose defensive schemes at the line of scrimmage and will attack weak spots in the defence with efficiency. He has the capacity to put the ball at the receivers' advantage.
However, Doughty's arm strength is probably not at NFL calibre at the moment. He doesn't have the capacity to hit long field side throws and will have to learn how to using timing to compensate for a lack of velocity on his passes. If he doesn't have a clean pocket, he tends to panic somewhat and will heave passes without setting his feet properly.
As the third string quarterback, Doughty won't have many reps to improve his quarterback play so he will need to use filmwork and study as the means to improve his play quickly when he does get a chance to see the field.

Per Sven, with pick 203, the Kansas City Chiefs select Jalin Marshall - WR - Ohio State University
Marshall came into the college system in his home state as a five-star recruit with high expectations as a dual-threat quarterback. However, Marshall was forced to redshirt the 2013 season due to injuries (including a concussion) and then tore a meniscus in spring practice. Having transitioned to a wide receiver, he played in all 15 games in 2014 as a reserve receiver and was the second-leading receiver on the Buckeyes with 38 catches for 499 yards and six touchdowns. Those freshman-year numbers put him second all-time amongst Buckeye receivers behind Cris Carter, and were enough to give him Freshman All-American accolades.
Marshall followed that up with 36 catches for 477 yards this season (five touchdowns) and 28 punt returns for 379 yards.
Marshall decided to turn pro after the completion of the 2015 season. He ran a 4.68 second 40-yard dash at the Buckeyes' pro day.
Marshall probably figures as a slot receiver at the next level, and will probably need to make his bones as a punt returner before he's incorporated into Kansas City's wide receiver rotation. There are queries on his ability to find separation against press man corners, with much of his production coming from plays designed to get him open at the college level. As a former dual-threat quarterback, Marshall will offer versatility to Andy Reid on jet sweeps and other funky plays.
However, the Chiefs will need to focus on his route running, with his breaks too rounded. He will also need to concentrate on how better to win contested ball situations, as he flashed only average hand strength.

Pick 209
Darius Jackson - RB - Eastern Michigan
May as well take a punt on one of the most athletic players available in the draft (6-1, 220; 4.35 40yd; 41" vert; 11'1 broad = pSPARQ of 98.9th percentile in the NFL)

The Detroit Lions select Devon Cajuste - TE/WR - Stanford
Cajuste shares a lot of similarities with 2015 first round selection, Devin Funchess (apart from their respective first names!). Cajuste has a large receiver build that will help the Lions create mis-matches at the goal-line and over the middle of the field. Cajuste started his college career with Stanford very well in 2014, catching 34 passes for 557 yards and six touchdowns (including two against Maryland in the Foster Farms Bowl). He was less effective in 2015, with just 27 catches for 383 yards and three touchdowns. However, Cajuste exploded in the game against Notre Dame for 125 yards (from five passes) and a touchdown.
Cajuste ran a reasonable 4.55 seconds 40-yard dash at Stanford's pro-day and managed 14 reps of 225lb on the bench press.
At 6'4", 234lb, Cajuste is tall and solidly built to absorb the punishment that he'll take from defenders going across the middle of the field. He is a reliable catcher with strong mitts and he can post up defenders and fight for the contested catch. Although he primarily played as a receiver in college, the Lions will probably transition him more as a TE or H-back in the pros, as he flashes decent blocking ability and prototypical tight end size.
Cajuste won't wow people with his acceleration off the line and he lacks the necessary second gear to take a pass down the seam for a score. More importantly, Cajuste may struggle to find the ability to separate from cornerbacks, who will sit on his routes. Additionally, Cajuste wasn't used much as a special team player by Stanford and will need to find his niche on special teams while he fights Eric Ebron for time on the offence.
Mad Prophet on the clock.

Bowling Green
Needed a QB, not a big enough need with Moore at backup so was happy to wait till the 7th, but alas, no 7th rounder for Dallas.
And if I have 3 comp picks in 6 or something, may as well take him now and not risk the need being taken in these next few picks. Probs a greater chance of a qb being taken then the others, so why the hell not
Mad Prophet - you're back up
Wont be back till about 0015 ACT so larkis - If we get on a roll between my picks, dont worry about waiting around for picks, just come back later or in the morning
