Have you heard the latest info about Darius Slay. We thought it was intriguing for the writer to say the Lions could shake up the NFC North if they made this move. The post is titled: NFL Teams That Desperately Need to Strike a Trade, once you have checked it out see if you agree with how we feel about it…
How Safe Is The NFC North If Darius Slay Does This?
The Detroit Lions are a quality team that needs a little more juice.
Quarterback Matthew Stafford is playing well with nine touchdowns and two interceptions, and the defense has put up nine sacks and forced eight fumbles, recovering six.
Yet the record stands at 2-1-1. The Lions only mustered a tie against Arizona and then beat depleted Los Angeles Chargers and Philadelphia teams before losing to Kansas City.
The Lions could set themselves apart by upping the ante defensively, such as adding a top-flight talent like Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey to a strong defensive backfield with Darius Slay and Justin Coleman.
That sounds ambitious, but teams have to be in the NFC North, where two teams have three wins and two more boast a pair. The Lions have yet to face a divisional opponent, and more defensive star power for Matt Patricia’s defense isn’t a bad idea.
Ramsey and the Lions are a good schematic fit, and the Detroit front office has plenty of draft assets to splurge (it still has all of its top-50 picks over the next two years) if it wants to make a move.

This article related to Darius Slay makes us extremely ecstatic because it makes how safe the NFC North would be if Slay has ever played with a corner who is just as good as him, or even better at any point in his football life. Well that’s what will happen if the Lions go fully in to win now mode. This also means Big Play Slay gets to take more chances on defense because the other side of the field is locked down, and the opponents’ rushing attack is being neutralized…it could get very unsafe for the QBs in the NFC North and the league at large!
We see the Lions racking up a lot of coverage sacks!
What would you be willing to give up to get Jalen Ramsey?
