Lions Trade Up and Select Jonah Jackson
5 years agoThe Detroit Lions struck a trade with the Indianapolis Colts, acquiring the 75th pick and 197th pick in exchange for the 85th, 149th and 182nd picks, per ESPN's Field Yates. With pick 75, the Lions selected offensive lineman Jonah Jackson out of Ohio State. Jackson has solid blocking abilities and balance, but does not provide exceptional talent for the position. Look for the Ohio State product to see a reasonable amount of playing time this season, though how much remains unclear.
