Pretty much agree with all this.  It really just depends on who falls tonus.  If Branch or Torrence makes it to the mid 2nd I'd do what I can to trade up even if it means giving up ou 2nd 3rd and a 4th.  We can still add a veteran pass rusher as well.  I still think we should try to get Leonard Floyd

I don't think Washington gets all the way to us but have no issues packaging up to 45 or so if he's still there then. We could probably flip 2s with the Lions and throw in a 4 and 6 from our haul last night. If we do then I could see some options being Torrence, Aliva, Keion, Tyrique, or Mauch in that area. If we stand pat we could be looking at DJ Turner, Luke Musgrave, Derrick Hall, or Tuipulotu from USC. Still really good options in those groups.

Considering the amount of quality prospects that should be available with Pick # 56, under most draft scenarios, I hope the Lions and Jaguars exchange Pick # 48 for Pick # 56, a 4th, and a 6th. Even if Darnell Washington is available with Pick # 48.  

After seeing the results by Lions GM Brad Holmes with 2021 4th Round Pick Amon-Ra St. Brown and the results with Malcolm Rodriguez and James Houston in the 6th Round of the 2022 Draft, this trade scenario makes a great amount of sense for the Lions.  

With the Jaguars having extra picks from their Day 1 consecutive trades, it would be a great opportunity for the Jaguars to get a unique talented TE to add to their mix, if Washington is available.
