Thing that may only interest me: Lions feeling themselves on draft day backfires

In the last 2 years, the Lions have given up the following picks to move up in the draft. They have not traded down.

2 2024 3rds
2 2025 3rds
2025 4th
2 2026 3rds

Depth needs come at you fast in the NFL.

Their 2021-2023 drafts were as good as you will ever see and that got them in a win-now window

I don’t fault them at all for being a bit aggressive. No amount of mid-round depth would overcome the types of injuries that they’ve had, or a sudden early retirement from your All Pro center.

The problem is, this depth issue doesn't go away.

They've given out huge deals to Sewell, St Brown, Goff, McNeil, Hutchinson, Kerby Joseph, etc. And they've got to pay LaPorta, Gibbs and Campbell. And a ton of this money has already been pushed out.

They badly need cheap players. And most of these picks were given up to move up in the draft to grab other guys.

Yes. So Eagles need to win and Bears to lose for Eagles to get 2. And 2 always hosts week 2.

One interesting thing about Niners/Seahawks is that this likely sets up a rematch in the divisional series since whoever loses plays the NFC South in the WC round.
