2024 NFL Draft results: Detroit Lions trade up, select CB Terrion Arnold

The Detroit Lions have traded up in the first round—going from pick 29 to 24—to select Alabama cornerback Terrion Arnold.

The move adds a big playmaker—arguably the best cornerback in the draft—to a secondary that could use some help after losing Cameron Sutton this offseason.

Detroit’s cornerback room is now massively overhauled with the additions of Carlton Davis, Amik Robertson, and now Terrion Arnold.

We’ll update the post with trade terms when they go live.

UPDATE:

The Lions now only have one Day 2 pick: the 61st overall pick in the second round.

More coverage to come on Arnold shortly.
