The Detroit Lions are strategically strengthening their cornerback position by drafting Terrion Arnold and Ennis Rakestraw Jr., and acquiring veteran Amik Robertson. Despite having a promising roster, analysts suggest they may still pursue San Francisco 49ers cornerback Charvarius Ward in free agency, especially since Carlton Davis and Emmanuel Moseley are pending free agents. Meanwhile, the 49ers, facing injury struggles, may lose their core players after this season, with predictions that Ward could join the Lions. Additionally, to enhance their pass-rush capabilities, the Lions are eyeing a potential trade for edge rusher Haason Reddick, who is seeking a new contract with the Jets. Seeking further defensive depth, the Lions are also considering signing safety Rudy Ford, who has experience in the NFC North. With significant cap space available, the Lions are in a position to bolster their squad effectively.
