The 2022 NFL Draft is full of cornerbacks in round one.
When the Detroit Lions traded Matthew Stafford to the Los Angeles Rams, it was clear the franchise was rebuilding.
What an exciting draft weekend! Now all that we can do is talk about the prospects each team drafted. One thing is certain from the weekend, the Detroit Lions got better with each of their picks. As well, It is no secret that Lions head coach Matt Patricia and general manager Bob Quinn needed impact players that could play right away, as they are on the hot seat. From this draft, the Lions picked several pro-ready players that will make a difference in their 2020 season. With that said, this is the recap of the Lions draft and highlights the players they drafted.
The Lions 2018 season left much to be desired. After a great first play from scrimmage resulting in an interception returned for a touchdown, the Lions season turned completely upside down. Matthew Stafford had one of his worst seasons as a pro and offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter would be replaced during the offseason by Darrell Bevell. After an up and down start resulting in a 3-3 record midway through October, they would go on to lose seven of the next ten games ending the season with a 6-10 record, their worst since 2012.

During this week’s draft, the Detroit Lions built up assets to help construct the future of their franchise, writes Adam Cook.
Even with round one already wrapped up, there are still many great players left. There were many players who weren’t even expected to go in the first, such as Tytus Howard, L.J. Collier, and Kaleb McGary. While those players were taken off the board, there were many players who were better prospects as the same position, such as Cody Ford, Dre’Mont Jones, and Jawaan Taylor.
Going into last season, the Minnesota Vikings broke the bank, to bring in highly coveted free agent quarterback Kirk Cousins. Expectations were quite high, only to end up missing the playoffs. The final nail in the coffin was a week 17 loss to the Chicago Bears. Looking towards the draft, the Vikings have eight picks, including two six and seven round selections. It wouldn’t be very surprising to see the Vikings take a pair of offensive linemen in the first four rounds.
The 2019 NFL draft is just a few days away and teams are putting the finishing touches on their player evaluations. Everyone loves mock drafts so here is a seven-round mock draft predicting every Houston Texans’ pick. Thanks to a previous trade, the Texans have three picks within the top 55 selections.
Linebacker U may not be sending many linebackers to the NFL this decade, but the Nittany Lions still have a large group turning pro this year. Penn State had seven players declare for the NFL draft following the 2018 season, but will they all hear their name called come April? Here is when I believe fans should expect to hear Trace McSorley and company’s names called.
After a disappointing loss to the Dallas Cowboys in the wild-card round, the Seahawks exit 2018 and enter the 2019 season with various offseason needs. Here is a detailed look at how the Seattle Seahawks will prepare for free agency and the upcoming NFL draft.
