Detroit Lions fans were HYPED for the Terrion Arnold pick. Here are the best reactions to Thursday night’s pick.
Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes did Brad Holmes things in Round 1, jumping up in the 2024 NFL draft to secure one of the top defensive prospects.
Late Thursday evening, the Lions were still expected to make their selection at 29, when they decided to get aggressive, trading up to No. 24 to get their guy. Alabama cornerback Terrion Arnold will don the Honolulu blue come fall and the world is reacting.
I want Terrion Arnold on my team.

Terrion Arnold makes a ton of sense for an Aaron Glenn defense. Versatility, physicality. Can press. Arrives with nasty intentions. Love the fit.

Terrion Arnold is a Lion and everyone should be crying tears of joy

The best part about Terrion Arnold is that he’s legit best friends with Nick Saban wife, Miss Terry. Legit face time basically every day pic.twitter.com/6eKdjvQiu4

The Lions just got better and funnier. Terrion Arnold is a ball magnet. His 5 ints and 17 pass breakups this year at @AlabamaFTBL show it and his tape is smooth like his back peddle. The Lions continue to invest in their secondary which has to improve for them to stay on top. pic.twitter.com/VtYtE8FwUN
