Detroit Lions general manager Bob Quinn doesn’t speak much publicly, but when he does, her certainly makes an impression. And when it’s around draft time, any NFL general manager talking publicly is bound to make waves, whether he’s telling truths or lobbing smokebombs into the discourse.
Quinn’s latest efforts came on Ian Rapoport’s podcast “RapSheet and Friends,” where he talked about picking in the top 10 for the first time as Lions GM. The eighth overall pick is the highest pick the Lions have held since 2013, when the franchise took Ezekiel Ansah fifth overall.
