Let's take a look at other Lions news and notes from around the web on Saturday, March 21:

Jeremy Reisman of SB Nation's Pride of Detroit described who he felt was the Lions' best acquisition this week. "Though technically not a “free agency” move, I thought the best move Detroit made this week was trading for safety Duron Harmon. Harmon is a coverage specialist—something Detroit’s back end has been missing—and his addition has the opportunity to improve the impact of a talent like Tracy Walker."
Jeff Risdon of USA Today's Lions Wire reported that Michigan defensive back Josh Metellus was a player scheduled to visit with the Lions. Unfortunately, visits with all NFL teams have been canceled as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.
Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press released the third version of his NFL mock draft. He projects the entire first round, and has the Lions selecting cornerback Jeff Okudah from Ohio State at No. 3 overall.
Conor Orr of Sports Illustrated graded all the major moves that occurred during free agency. He graded the Darius Slay trade a C+ for the Lions.
