Lions Draft Michigan Center Graham Glasgow In 3rd Round Of NFL Draft

ALLEN PARK (CBS Detroit/AP) -- With the 95th overall pick in the NFL Draft, the Detroit Lions selected University of Michigan center Graham Glasgow on Friday night.

The four-year letterman started 37 games with the Wolverines after walking-on in 2011.

The Lions were a given third-round compensatory pick after they lost Ndamukong Suh last year in free agency. Center Travis Swanson will be pushed to keep his job after starting 14 games last year.

The Lions also selected an offensive lineman, Ohio State tackle Taylor Decker, in the first round with the 16th pick.

Glasgow was the only Wolverines player to be taken in the draft's first three rounds.
