Here we go!
The 2021 NFL Draft will finally kick off on Thursday and by the end of the night, we will finally know what the Detroit Lions decided to do with the No. 7 overall pick in the opening round. Will they trade the pick? (Hopefully) Will they select a wide receiver? (Hopefully not) or will they be smart and select an offensive lineman if they are unable to trade down? (I’d take it).
We will soon have an answer to those questions, but for now, let’s take a look at everything you need to know about watching/following the 2021 NFL Draft.
