Draft Thread 2020

Pride Of Detroit Lions Podcast First Byte: Debating the top 5 candidates for the Detroit Lions? 3rd overall pick. 48 minutes.
We break down each of the top 5 candidates for the Lions? top pick.

While we await the Detroit Lions? extra secret search for a coaching staff to support Matt Patricia and his defense, it?s time to start looking forward. The NFL Draft is just over three months away, and with players officially declaring, it?s starting to become clear the kind of talent that will be available for the Lions with that third overall pick.

So this week on the First Byte?our midweek mini-podcast?we discuss the top five candidates that could go third overall to the Lions. We all know that Chase Young is great, but what would the Lions do with him in his rookie year? Is defensive tackle a position worthy of a top-three pick? Could the Lions potentially go offense with their first overall pick? And is the Jeffrey Okudah hype worth it?

But before we get into all of that, we talk about the news of Tua Tagovailoa declaring for the 2020 NFL Draft. How does it affect the Lions? What?s with all these reporters suggesting the Lions could draft him?

This week on First Byte:
Tua Tagovailoa declares! Bart Scott and Mel Kiper Jr. make ridiculous, unsubstantiated claims about the Lions drafting Tua and trading Matthew Stafford. We?re all over these horrible takes.

Tagovailoa?s declaration certainly helps the Lions? trade-down chances, but with whom? And why would they choose the Lions to trade down with over other teams in the top five?

We discuss five players the Lions could take fifth overall.

Where would Chase Young fit into the Lions? defensive scheme?

If the Lions drafted Jeff Okudah, would it mean Darius Slay is on his way out?

Defensive tackle is a need, but is it worthy of a top-three pick with Derrick Brown?

Who is the top offensive tackle in this draft class? Is anyone worthy of Detroit?s first pick?

Jerry Jeudy is one fine weapon, but would he be a luxury pick that early?

Detroit Lions Podcast Episode 249 ? Doin? It Live To Kick Off 2020. 85 minutes.

In this episode of The Detroit Lions Podcast, Chris and Jeff ?The Riz? Risdon are together again to discuss the latest breaking Detroit Lions news. A lot of conversation about coaching changes, the Draft, Senior Bowl, and more. As usual, we go in hot. Oh, and Chris has a beard ? we haven?t seen that before. Check out the YouTube channel if you want a peek.

Detroit Lions Podcast Talks Draft Last.
There?s a lot to talk about, and a lot of decisions for the Lions ahead of the draft. We decided to cover some of the more pressing topics first. Don?t worry, we?ll give you a good heaping dose of Lions 2020 NFL Draft strategy. In the last portion of the show.

First, Chris takes a rare ?I told you so? moment to recount how he predicted Paul Pasqualoni?s departure would go. Of course that leads to a discussion about the Lions strategy around who they want as Defensive Coordinator.
Chris asks why everyone thinks that Matt Patricia wants to run the defense.
He brings great points about what Patricia might be looking for and why it could be different than the hive mind thinks. This hire will reveal a lot about the Lions organization and the direction the team will head for the 2020 season.

We also look at the rest of the coaching staff, including the possibility of the Lions losing Sean Ryan. The Detroit Lions Podcast also happily announces the promotion of Hank Fraley. He?ll be coaching the offensive line going forward which is a good step for him and the Lions.

We sneak in some big news about the Detroit Lions Podcast garnering a spot on Radio Row at the 2020 Senior Bowl. This means we?ll be conducting a number of player and coaching staff interviews throughout the week. You won?t want to miss any of this, get subscribed to our YouTube channel. Also, click the notification bell so you know exactly who we are interviewing and when.
Big names guaranteed and big news will be made, we guarantee it.

Your Home For 2020 Lions NFL Draft Coverage.
Lastly, we cover the NFL Draft. This is our first cut on the 2020 NFL Draft. We?ll have a ton of coverage for you leading up to the NFL Draft on April 23-25, 2020. Today we cover three big topics:

The talk about Tua.

Trading down, what it means, what?s the chances we do, and who might convince us.

What is the thinking if the Lions don?t move away from pick #3.

Some big topics, some big names, and some great conversation. We?ve got a lot planned for you as we move forward in the process. We?ll be at the Shrine Bowl, Senior Bowl, and NFL Scouting Combine getting key draft information for Lions fans. We?ve got you covered and will share our analysis as things ebb and flow throughout the process. Also, we haven?t forgotten about Free Agency. Case is working on a huge breakdown for you to help you get a grip on where the Lions might make moves. We?ve got you.
