Unless the Detroit Lions trade back up in the draft, the Lions final pick of the 2023 NFL Draft is North Carolina’s WR Antoine Green with the 219th overall selection. Also, it makes the Lions third consecutive pick from an East-West Shrine Bowl participant after Brodric Martin and Colby Sorsdal.
The Lions need receiver depth after the recent suspension of Jameson Williams and Stanley Berryhill, along with the release of Quintez Cephus. Also, the Lions only have Williams and Amon-Ra St. Brown signed beyond next year, and he could provide the necessary depth behind them if he can crack the roster.
