The Detroit Lions waited until the 11th hour, but after weeks of dialogue with the Cleveland Browns they pulled the trigger on a trade for EDGE Za’Darius Smith. It’s a huge get for the Lions defense, providing some much-needed help in pass rush following the loss of Aidan Hutchinson. The whole team gets better from this acquisition, but who benefits the most?
Question of the day: Which Detroit Lion benefits the most from the Za’Darius Smith trade?
My answer: Hear me out here—it’s Aidan Hutchinson.
There are plenty of beneficiaries in the short term.
