I certainly would have asked for a lot. Although had Hopkins been available for that true deal - i would have been all over that! I am certain the same level of angst would have happened if I made that trade - because of the draft depth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reason? The Lions were hoping that the Redskins were going a different direction and Chase Young dropped. He wasn’t available, but that doesn’t change the fact that Detroit needs serious help along the defensive line. Mike Daniels, A’Shawn Robinson and Snacks out of the mix the need for a dominant DT was amplified. Derrick Brown is an example of need and BPA meeting. There was a faction in the war room lobbying for Okudah, but we decided that corners aren’t worth as much when opposing offenses don’t have to pass the football. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, you may very well be correct. Now thhat I think about it, there was a very big Shenault faction at the time but, I don't seem to recall Jefferson in the conversation too much at that point; I think it might have been more DE guys AJ Epenesa/Yetur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember the thread where Shenault and Higgins were grouped with the top 3. It was something to the tune of “these 5 are universally regarded as the top 5.” Yeah, no!! It was ALWAYS 3 guys and then a lot of others. The Bills clearly wanted one of the 3 based on Beane’s interview today. He just thought that the price was too high especially with Diggs available.

I do think if making the pick you would go with CB as the talent is close and CB is the biggest need with Slay traded.

I was a bit conflicted on the pick. However, they signed Trufant, and there’s a bit of depth at CB... Should be value there at the top of round 2. DT is a massive need for Detroit and the value was there for a top 5 pick. They need a day one starter on the DL. 12 minutes ago, Just Joshin' said: I do think if making the pick you would go with CB as the talent is close and CB is the biggest need with Slay traded. As a player I think Brown is higher rated but I do not not consider myself an expert. I think you’re also neglecting how bad their interior D line is. In an ideal world I would have traded back to 5 and selected whichever player of Brown and Okudah was left while getting another pick out of the deal. With a trade down to 7 I may have gone OT.
