2020 NFL Draft order set: Detroit Lions will have the 3rd overall pick

The tank is over.

After a disappointing 3-12-1 season, the Detroit Lions will draft third overall in the 2020 NFL Draft.

With their loss to the Green Bay Packers, the Lions were secured at least a top three pick. With Cincinnati locked in with the first pick, it came down to whether or not Washington could upset the Dallas Cowboys. Unfortunately, the Cowboys prevailed, and the Lions stood pat at third.

When Matthew Stafford got injured against the Oakland Raiders, most people in the Lions community knew that the season was over.
