What happened: The Detroit Lions are trading picks No. 50 and No. 128 to the New York Jets to move up to No. 44 in the second round of the NFL Draft. The Jets had traded into the spot before moving back. Lions are now on the clock.

Why it matters: After selecting Clemson OT Blake Miller at No. 17, this positions Detroit to add another key piece for the 2026 season. The aggressive move signals confidence in their draft board amid early-round trade activity. Jets gain extra mid-round picks for depth.

What to watch: Monitor Lions' selection at No. 44. Track Jets' plans with picks 50 and 128.
