This makes my dream scenario more likely - if the Lions really want Tua, they'd need to trade up to 2 to get him. And trading down to 3 makes a lot of sense for us, since we could still draft Young.
We get Young at 3 and pick up atleast the Lions 2nd round pick - and likely more. For all we know, the Dolphins may offer all 3 of their 1st round picks to move up to 2, which means if the Lions wanted to beat them, they'd need to throw in next years 1st too.
A lot is yet to happen, but thanks to Tua mania, everything is playing out perfectly for us to get more picks - and still get young. |
If we were foolish enough to buy into this gambit, it would take the Lions about two seconds after the trade became official to draft Young.
