Carlton Davis trade grades: Who won the Buccaneers and Lions deal?
The Detroit Lions acquired a new starter for their defense on Monday as the team traded a 2024 third-round pick to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for cornerback Carlton Davis, per multiple reports.
Davis was a member of the 2020 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Super Bowl team and has played at a high level for Tampa Bay in his six seasons with the franchise.
The Lions weren’t afraid to send a higher draft pick to the Bucs to secure Davis for their defense, as he should step in right away as the team’s best cornerback.
Let’s break down this trade to see how it went for both Tampa Bay and Detroit.
