One team to watch during the NFL Draft is the #Lions: At No. 3, I’m told they’ve had discussions with teams about potentially moving back from their slot and that teams wanting to move up have been receptive. As it maps out possibilities, Detroit is always an intriguing team.

Probably Miami looking to ensure they can secure Tagovailoa or Herbert at QB. Not a fan of this team potentially swapping the 9th pick and giving up the 20th pick or a 2nd RD pick to get Okudah or Simmons. 

If Chase Young, however, makes it past the Redskins for whatever reason? I am all for that trade. I wouldn't rule out maybe swapping the 9th pick for the 3rd pick while giving up Ngakoue as well. That's somewhat fair. You give up a player that doesn't want to be here anymore and you get a shot at taking one of the top two, three overall defensive players in the draft. 

Fine by me. Just don't give up the 20th pick nor any other pick to make that deal happen outside of swapping that 9th out.
