Detroit Lions fielding calls for the third overall pick in NFL Draft

According to Ian Rapoport, the Detroit Lions “had discussions with teams about potentially moving back,” and there appears to be interest. (ProFootballTalk on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
The Lions own the third overall pick in this year’s draft, and with the first two picks being all but set in stone, (with Cincinnati going QB Joe Burrow and Washingon going DE Chase Young) there’s no reason for Detroit to not shop the pick. Quarterbacks are at a premium in this league, and Detroit already has their guy in Matthew Stafford, so it makes sense to see if a team is willing to trade up to the third pick in hopes of snagging Oregon’s Justin Herbert or Alabama’s Tua Tagovailoa.
