It turned out that the Lions received a 2019 5th Round Pick for Laken Tomlinson.

Though Laken Tomlinson has high character,  he didn't come close to living up to his draft billing as pick # 28 in 2015.  It was disappointing when the Lions passed on Texas DT Malcom Brown.  The Patriots took advantage of the opportunity shortly afterwards.  

Tomlinson was a starter as a rookie but lost his starting job in October, 2016.  Tomlinson regained his job because of injuries.  He had his moments but overall was too inconsistent both pass blocking and run blocking.  Not to mention too many penalties.  

Based on Tomlinson having no versatility beyond playing both Guard positions and him falling behind Joe Dahl,  on the depth chart for a backup position,  I'm thrilled the Lions got a 5th Round pick for him.
