2024 Projections
Picked 24th overall by Detroit
The Lions selected Arnold in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 24th overall.
ANALYSIS
Arnold was widely expected to get drafted sooner than this, so it's arguably a steal for Detroit even though they traded up from the 29th selection. Cornerback has been a problem for years in Detroit and the 2023 season was no exception, so even if Arnold is a mere CB2 type for the Lions he would still make a significant impact. Then again, Arnold might have legitimate CB1 upside, especially with defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn on hand as one of the best cornerback coaches in the league. Although a bit skinny at 6-feet, 189 pounds, Arnold projects well in any coverage type and from any corner position after taking leading the Alabama secondary the last two years. He should be able to win a Week 1 starting role in Detroit.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Not counted on immediately
The Lions are not expecting Arnold to immediately win a starting job, Eric Woodyard of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Arnold surprisingly slipped to the 24th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, though the draft capital the Lions used on him still suggests he's a strong candidate to start immediately. Detroit's secondary was a weak spot in 2023, though the team had aggressively revamped the position group this offseason by trading for Carlton Davis and signing Amik Robertson even before the draft. Arnold will almost certainly find his way onto the field a lot as a rookie, but the Lions' offseason moves have allowed them to not put too much pressure on him early on.
