The only thing is that the Packers will want a W to offset the loss in Minny. You don't lose two to your rivals. You win at home.As far as the Lions, I think they have visions of a decent draft dancing in their head. By losing out, they get the #1 or #2 pick in the draft. It could be a very tradable commodity, or it could be a franchise type player they can grab. They need an edge rusher and I think there are probably 3 in the top 10 picks. Kayvon Thibodeaux and Aidan Hutchinson could go 1 & 2. Not that far back is George Karlaftis out of Purdue. The guy is a pocket buster! So, they could drop down to as far as the 10th pick and still get a high ROI. For a team down around #10 in picks, there would have to be a package/swap of picks beyond the first round to make it happen. If I was the Lions, I'd do it for the first, third, and fifth round picks. A chance to add realistically decent players in the third and fifth. They need several players to get where they want to go.</blockquote>
