Detroit Lions must prioritize Darius Slay over Damon Harrison

In the pass-happy NFL these days, having a lockdown corner to count on 24/7 is a necessity for a successful team, and the Detroit Lions have luckily found that in Darius Slay.

Slay has been consistent in his seven-year tenure in Detroit, but the past two seasons have really been breakout ones for the former Mississippi State Bulldog. In the 31 games that Slay played in 2017 and 2018, he made his presence felt by corralling 11 interceptions and defending 43 passes, while earning a First-Team All-Pro nod in 2017 and a Pro Bowl invite in both years.
