In the latest game of “follow that Lions draft pick” we head to the Pacific Northwest. The Seattle Seahawks have kept the 2019 trade with the Lions for safety Quandre Diggs from being fully completed.
The Lions traded Diggs and a 2021 seventh-round pick to Seattle in October of 2019 in exchange for a 2020 fifth-round pick. Detroit selected RB Jason Huntley with the pick. He’s now in Philadelphia after failing to make the Lions as a rookie.
The Seahawks kept the other pick moving. Seattle traded the Lions’ 2021 seventh-round pick and backup offensive lineman B.J. Finney to the Cincinnati Bengals for defensive end Carlos Dunlap.
The traded pick isn’t officially finalized, but the Seahawks don’t have their own 2021 seventh-round pick to trade. Seattle traded that to the New York Jets in August of 2019 for defensive back Parry Nickerson. He never played a down for the Seahawks and is currently on the Packers injured reserve.
