NFL draft's top picks Aidan Hutchinson, Travon Walker meet Sunday: 'I love the one we got'

The accolades keep coming for Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson.

Hutchinson was named NFL Defensive Rookie of the Month on Thursday after he finished November with two interceptions, one sack and one fumble recovery.

The No. 2 pick of April's draft, Hutchinson was named NFC Defensive Rookie of the Week after a three-tackle, two-takeaway performance last month in a win against the New York Giants. He leads the Lions with 5.5 sacks this season and is one of the favorites for NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year.

Just three Lions have won that award previously: Ndamukong Suh 2009, Bubba Baker in 1978 and Lem Barney in 1967.
