ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) Detroit Lions general manager Bob Quinn says he plans to take some skill guys on the third day of the NFL draft.

Quinn bolstered both lines during the first two days of the draft.

Detroit took Alabama defensive tackle A'Shawn Robinson in the middle of the second round and Michigan center Graham Glasgow late in the third Friday night. The Lions selected Ohio State offensive tackle Ohio State offensive tackle Taylor Decker midway through the first round on Thursday night.

Quinn says football games are won by offensive and defensive linemen.

The Lions are going into the final day of the draft with seven picks, including two in the fifth round and a three in the sixth round.
