Despite going toe-to-toe with arguably the best team in the league, the Lions came up just short as the Bills used a late field goal to win 28-25. With the Lions losing to the Bills and the Los Angeles Rams losing once again, the Lions' picks in the 2023 NFL Draft have shifted. In fact, thanks to the Rams, the Lions currently have one of the top picks in the draft.
