Well, the Detroit Lions have officially been eliminated from playoff contention, which means it is officially time to start looking towards the 2021 NFL Draft. (To be fair, many of you have probably been looking ahead for quite a while now.)
The Lions currently hold the No. 11 selection in the 2021 NFL Draft but there is still a couple of weeks to move up in the order.
If the Lions want to move up in the draft order, it all starts with them losing on Saturday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
In addition to the Buccaneers, here are 8 additional teams you should be rooting for if you are on the ‘Tank Train.”
49ers (5-9) at Cardinals (8-6) *(49ers won 20-12)
Falcons (4-10) at Chiefs (13-1)
Texans (4-10) vs. Bengals (3-10-1)
Giants (5-9) at Ravens (9-5)
Panthers (4-10) at Washington (6-8)
Chargers (5-9) vs. Broncos (5-9)
Eagles (4-9-1) at Cowboys (5-9)
Patriots (6-8) vs. Bills (11-3)
