The pick is in and with the No. 46 overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, the Detroit Lions have selected EDGE Josh Paschal out of Kentucky.
With players like LB Nakobe Dean, S Jaquan Brisker, and QB Malik Willis still on the board, plenty of Lions fans took to Twitter to question why the Lions would select another EDGE.
Of course, there were also some who liked the pick (which we included) but the initial reaction was very one-sided.
Here are some of the reactions.
Nation, what do you think about his pick?
WILLIS AND DEAN WERE RIGHT THERE
