Well, according to Chris Trapasso of CBS Sports, the Lions could shake up the first round of the draft by selecting QB Malik Willis out of Liberty.
Here is what Trapasso wrote:
Lions selecting Malik Willis with the second-overall pick: “If it happens, it’ll send off sirens on the quarterback market moving at a faster pace than just about everyone expected, and, of course, will push a non-quarterback down the board for the Texans at No. 3 overall.”
Nation, how would you feel about the Lions shaking up the first round by selecting QB Malik Willis with the No. 2 overall pick?
