So Harris will serve as Mosley's backup in the slot?

I think we'll see Harris only in nickel packages so it's likely we see both on the field at times. Could see Harris lineup outside at times.

I don't think these signings change draft strategy.

I think it depends on what they think of Okudah. If they don't offer him his 5th year option (which I think they have to decide by May), then they will have a hole at starting corner in 2024 anyway, even if Sutton is still CB1. If they think Okudah is a starter of the future, whether by the 5th year option or otherwise, then we only need depth at the position (other than maybe the slot) until 2025. Corner is a position where you don't like to force a rookie into starting too early, so taking a corner could still play to their advantage.

I think the good thing draft-wise about signing Sutton and Moseley is that there is no longer a position group where the issue needs to be forced. At this point I don't see a group that you look at and say "if the Lions don't address this position in the draft, they're totally screwed."

It's a good spot to be in, because you can largely go BPA down the line and still be very competitive in 2023.

Darren Waller traded to the Giants for a 3rd round pick. That seems like a good deal for the Giants.

Been a fun few days for waller, must feel like teams have his back:
