Daily DLP: Draft Trade that wasn't, bye week update & more - Detroit Lions Podcast

Ravens video reveals a Lions trade that vanishedBaltimore's in-house production, Ravens Wired, captured a draft-night framework between the Ravens and the Detroit Lions. The Ravens held pick 14. Detroit explored jumping from 17 to grab their guy. In the room were Ravens GM Eric DeCosta and longtime Ravens exec Ozzie Newsome. As the board shifted, you can hear DeCosta say, “the deal’s off.” The Detroit Lions Podcast breaks down how it unraveled and why Detroit stayed put. What Detroit kept by not movingThe reported framework from Ravens Wired: the Lions would have sent 17, a fourth-rounder at 118, and a 2027 third. Earlier in the process, Detroit also discussed offering two fourths plus 17 to the Rams at 13. None of it proved necessary. Pick 17 became Blake Miller. Pick 118 became LB Jimmy Rolder. Baltimore, once the talks died, drafted Vega Ioane, the guard from Penn State. Would he have been there at 17? Maybe. Unclear. It's also been revealed that the Lions specifically requested not to have their bye week immediately following their game in Germany in November. The NFL explained how it worked with the Lions and retiring exec Rod Wood to set up the Lions to avoid playing on the Thursday after Thanksgiving instead. Finally, the Daily DLP keeps up with a few ex-Lions who have new NFL homes. That includes Brodric Martin, who is the rare Brad Holmes swing and miss in the Draft. 🔵 Detroit Lions Podcast - Your source for Detroit Lions analysis, news, and discussion. 📺 Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@DetroitLionsPodcast 🎧 Listen on your favorite podcast platform 📱 Follow us on X: @DetLionsPodcast #DetroitLions #Lions #NFL #Football #Podcast #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #lionsdraft #baltimoreravens #ericdecosta #bradholmes #blakemiller #drafttrades #benitojones #shanezylstra #brodricmartin #timpatrick
