The Detroit Lions were pretty darn happy with their selection of Michigan edge defender Aidan Hutchinson, as evidenced by how quickly they ran up the card on draft night. However, we’re left to wonder what the Lions would have done had the Jacksonville Jaguars selected Hutchinson instead of Georgia edge Travon Walker.
For many weeks, it looked like that was the conundrum the Lions would find themselves in. Hutchinson was long considered the favorite as the first overall pick, leading Lions fans to debate whether Walker would be the Lions pick or Oregon edge defender Kayvon Thibodeaux.
